Devices used to measure the wet-bulb temperature include a dry-bulb thermometer, wet-bulb thermometer and globe thermometer. The National Weather Service recommends the wet-bulb temperature for ...

Sun exposure makes it feel hotter than the shaded air temperature because your body absorbs infrared radiation from the sun.

The U.S. Military and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration use wet bulb globe temperature to determine a safe amount of time to work outside.

Similar to the heat index, the wet bulb globe temperature will tell you how hot it actually feels outside by factoring in the temperature and relative humidity.

Meteorologists measure the rate of evaporation, and the temperature difference between the “wet bulb” and the “dry bulb,” or air temperature.

Typically the way wind chills are measured, according to the National Weather Service, is when the air temperature is 50 degrees or below, and the wind speeds are 3mph or higher.

One day in August, The Republic sent 13 reporters to measure heat across metro Phoenix. ASU scientists explain why the results aren't precisely right.

I've got a setup where I graph my CPU and MB temps (sample graph) using sensors, rrdtool, and cricket (under Linux). I would like to measure room temperature as well so I need a thermometer that ...

You need to start learning what the wet-bulb temperature is, as climate change makes the deadly combination of heat and humidity more likely.
