Why/how can the same temperature feel completely different on different days or seasons?

Its 33°F right now but it feels so cold that I really thought it was like 10° out. But a week ago I remember being outside and it felt pretty nice. I checked and the temperature was 36°F. It should feel the same shouldn’t it?

I also notice this happens when the season changes. When summer is ending and the temp starts to drop into the 60s it feels so cold but when winter is ending and it starts to go *up* into the 50s and 60s it practically feels like summer.

I use the app AccuWeather and it tells me the actual temperature with a “Feels Like” temperature next to it.

So for example the other day it was 8 Celsius but felt like -2 Celsius. This could be for a variety of reasons including wind chill
