<![CDATA[Heat Index Heat Advisories]]>Why are Heat Index and Heat Advisories not addressed on this app?Heat Advisories are critical to public safety and come from NOAA Wet bulb temp is not the same.

These layers seem to be a matter of simple math based on the data that is there already.

I'm surprised it's not already a layer.

The wet bulb temperature doesn't really capture how hot it is in a meaningful way. Today's (July 13) wet bulb temperature in Phoenix will be 73 degrees . Hmm... kinda underwhelming.

90°F wet bulb temp =131F° heat index
95°F wet bulb temp =160F° heat index

Windy does not show a Heat index layer, but the Wet bulb temperature layer gives a good idea how crucial the temperature will be difficult for people with a strenuous activity.

You can in addition look at Extreme forecast layer which provides predictions about abnormal high temperatures.

In South Florida,Heat Index(temp/humidity factor)is a crucial aspect daily for regulating personal outside activity as human ability to evaporate perspiration is affected.Thank you for your attention to this matter,allowing me,and everyone,to voice our observations,and having the best mobile weather app available.Thank you

It is still an experimental layer, and all types of warnings are not displayed, so you better rely on NWS warnings.

If not then provide that feedback with a screenshot and/or a location and someone can investigate.
