The heat index is bullshit

I have lived on the both coasts, and 90 with 100% humidity= 110 with 0% humidity

It was created for east coasters to be able to throw around high temperatures even though it isn't really that hot out. Weather info is notorious for this. They often state the heat index during heat waves instead of air temperatures
I'll admit that high humidity is very uncomfortable, but it cannot be related to a high air temp. The conditions feel completely different. Humidity gives a wet feeling from your sweat sitting on your skin. Straight up high temps are like opening an oven, it hurts, but you'll stay relatively dry.

Not the same. State the temp and humidity if it is notable.

You mean like the wind chill when it is -10 where I live and the wind is blowing at 30+mph? -10 is cold, but when it is that cold and windy, it's fucking cold...I think the same can be said for the heat index. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

PFFFFT you come to the east coast and you wont last 20 minutes on in the shiz we live with. It was 92 the otherday and the humidity was like 40% and I said shi- its nice out, and then I just realized the humidity was down for once
