What does "feels like" temperature mean on WeatherPerch?

The "feels like" temperature is an estimate of how the outdoor temperature may be experienced by a person after considering other atmospheric factors. Depending on the conditions, factors such as humidity and wind can make the air feel warmer or colder than the measured temperature. WeatherPerch displays both the actual temperature and feels-like temperature in its weather summaries. This distinction can be useful because two days with the same measured temperature may feel very different. For example, high humidity can make warm conditions feel more uncomfortable, while strong wind can make cool air feel colder. When deciding what to wear or whether conditions are comfortable for outdoor activity, the feels-like temperature can provide useful additional context.
