Heat Index vs. Humidity

The influence of humidity on the apparent temperature and the heat index. The Heat Index indicates how hot it feels when relative humidity is combined with temperature.

Heat Index vs. Humidity

The Heat Index - or the Apparent Temperature - is used to indicate how hot it feels when relative humidity is combined with temperature.

With increased humidity it feels hotter as indicated in the Heat Index table below.

Heat and Humidity Index Danger Zones

  • 90 - 104°F: Heat cramps or heat exhaustion possible
  • 105 - 130°F: Heat cramps or heat exhaustion likely, heatstroke possible
  • 130°F and more: Heat stroke highly likely
