I feel dumb but… how is the weather not just automatically what it ‘feels like’? Or how does outside not ‘feel like’ the actual weather? Also who is the God that determines the number that the weather feels like? Because it can be different for everyone. Hope you guys understand my drift, i’m confusing myself the more i think about it.

The temperature is the temperature, it’s an objectively measured data point.
But the “feels like” number is figured out by factoring in other variables like relative humidity and wind conditions.
When it’s particularly dry and windy, the air feels much colder than it actually is, and when the humidity is very high and there’s no breeze the air feels suffocatingly hot.
Weather people have just managed to figure out a clever way to relate the different combinations of factors into a simple and useful number for us normal people to use.
