We all know the Humidex is way higher
Here's where things stand at my house right now:
Current Temp: 30.3°C
Apparent Temperature: 35.7°C
Heat Index: 41.9°C
Humidex: 46.8
Humidity / Dewpoint: 90% / 28.5°C
The relationships among these indices are not linear, now the humidex is only 5 degrees higher than the heat index (although technically humidex has no units). The Australian index is trending lower now because it also factors in the wind, which has picked up a bit since this morning
