How Forecasters Decide whether to Issue Excessive Heat Warnings
NOAA's heat alert procedures are based mainly on Heat Index Values. The Heat Index, sometimes referred to as the apparent
temperature is given in degrees Fahrenheit. The Heat Index is a measure of how hot it really feels when relative humidity is factored
with the actual air temperature.
Use the chart above to answer the following questions:
To find the Heat Index temperature, look at the Heat Index chart below. As an example, if the air temperature is 96°F and the relative
humidity is 65%, the heat index--how hot it feels-is 121°F. The Weather Service will initiate alert procedures when the Heat Index is
expected to exceed 105°-110°F (depending on local climate) for at least 2 consecutive days.
