Sometimes we only use the air temperature as a measure of how comfortable we will feel when working or playing outside.

But when the days get longer and the sun becomes stronger we need to take into account a lot more than air temperature.

Heat-induced illnesses, such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke occur when your body can't keep itself cool.

The evaporation of sweat is slowed on hot and humid days causing your body temperature to rise and become ill.

WBGT index is a term used in industry, sports and other areas to indicate the heat stress level for humans and animals.

It calculates the heat stress of radiant heat, which takes into account temperature, humidity, wind speed, sun angle and cloud cover.

This type of meter combines these factors into a single number so you can quickly take into account the conditions you are in.
