Where "feels like" comes from
- Heat index: on hot days, humid air slows down how fast sweat cools you, so it feels hotter than the thermometer says. Calculate it for any temperature and humidity with our heat index calculator (NWS formula).
- Wind chill: on cold days, wind carries body heat away from your skin faster, so it feels colder. Our wind chill calculator uses the NWS formula and shows when frostbite becomes a risk.
- Neither: on mild days the latest NWS report contains no heat index or wind chill, and this tool shows the air temperature itself.
This tool does not calculate the feels-like itself: it shows the heat index or wind chill the National Weather Service includes in the station's report. Commercial weather apps often use their own formulas under brand names, so their "feels like" can differ.

Quick answers
What does it feel like outside right now?
Press "Use my location" or enter your ZIP code above: you see the feels-like temperature next to the real one, from the nearest National Weather Service station with a recent reading.
Why does it say "same as the air temperature"?
When it is neither hot and humid enough for a heat index nor cold and windy enough for a wind chill, the NWS report has neither value, and the air temperature is what you feel.
Why is the feels like different in my weather app?
Apps often use their own formulas and add things such as sunshine. This tool only shows the heat index and wind chill as the National Weather Service reports them.
