It's also affected by wind and radiation and is often used in occupational health and safety guidelines for working in hot environments. In some ways it's similar to the existing formula but the point of difference is that the "Q" takes into account the net radiation absorbed per unit area of body surface (which is the impact of the sun).

Brisbane had a low of 8.4 degrees on Tuesday, but the wind-chill factor meant it felt closer to 6.

The "feels like" temperature, or the apparent temperature (AT), shows how the average person would feel outside in the shade, if they are dressed for the weather.

The results help develop a more mathematical model of heat balance in the human body, which looks like this: To translate: AT is based on the actual temperature recorded (Ta), which involves using thermometers sheltered from the sun and wind in something called a "Stevenson screen", as well as the humidity and wind.

Elsewhere, Wellcamp Airport near Toowoomba dropped to minus 4.6, Warwick and Oakey in southern Queensland hit minus 4.5 and Dalby recorded minus 4.2 degrees.

Wow you write like only the UK gets humidity at all yet you can’t seem to grasp that Brisbane and the north of Australia is quite close to the equator and receives those levels of humidity and temperatures consistently for half the year. On Tuesday, in Moss Vale, NSW the temperature was 8.4C at 6:40pm but the "feels like" temperature was a cool -1.2C. BOM said the wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT), which was developed in the 1950s, can also be used to measure temperature and humidity in a single number.

But in humid conditions, the condensation takes a lot longer to evaporate. La Trobe University academic Dr Robert Steadman helped develop the AT scale, based on how heat loss or gain — through blood flow, breathing and sweating — interact with the temperature and atmosphere.

South to southeasterly about 10 knots inshore early morning.

The BOM says in summer, high humidity can make you feel warmer than it might actually be.

The BOM's senior meteorologist Jenny Sturrock explains in their video (see above) that it's because of wind blowing away the heat created from your body temperature: "You have a layer of warmer air around your body that can insulate you from cooler surrounding air [but] wind strips this layer away and allows you to feel more of the cold," she said.
Part of how the BOM works this out is by surveying adults on their susceptibility to the temperature. Correct fridge and freezer temperatures not only maintain the longevity of your foods, but also keep them safe from harmful bacteria.
