Real Feel

Discover magazine became more social than science decades ago, and I am told that even Scientific American has opened the bulkhead and headed down into the cellar.  Is Popular Science still okay?  This article on wind chill/heat index/Real Feel seemed pretty good. 

“It’s basically just how the temperature feels different to our skin,” meteorologist Cyrena Arnold tells Popular Science. “We have sensors in our skin and our skin is made up of water. So our skin actually behaves differently based upon the evaporation of that water.”
