PANOORIN: Temperatura at 'heat index' anong pinag-iba?

April 20, 2023 | 3:22pm

MANILA, Philippines — Tuwing tag-araw, dalawang panukat ng init ang lagi mong maririnig o mababasa sa balita: temperature at heat index. Pero may pinagkaiba ba 'yan?

Sa madaling sabi, meron. Ang isa ay 'yung literal na init o lamig habang ang isa naman ay 'yung aktwal na init na nararamdaman ng iyong katawan tuwing "hot dry season," ayon sa PAGASA.

Huwag balewalain ang heat index lalo na't malalaman dito kung nanganganib ka nang magkaroon ng "heat cramps," "heat exhaustion" o "heat stroke."

Panoorin ang paliwanag diyan ni James Relativo sa video na ito.
