That's one of those 'feels like' forecasts that they always give. Who
needs real figures when you can make them up, a bit like who needs a
real gale when you can have gale force gusts.

Dig down another step (press the + button) and you get a real
forecast of 22C

which may well not be far out.

Ah tks. The dreaded "feels like" stuff.
I will decide what a temperature feels like thank you, I don't need anyone
to tell me.
Wind chill (for when it is below freezing) is useful but otherwise what's
the point?
A temperature of 15C with a 30 knot wind will er ... feel like a temperature
of 15C with a 30 knot wind.
