14. How can I calculate the Heat Index myself?

Please refer to these links to learn more about the Heat Index and how it is calculated:
Weather.gov - Heat Index

The heat index formula is expressed as: makefile

HI = c1 + c2T + c3R + c4TR + c5T2 + c6R2 + c7T2R + c8TR2 + c9T2R2

In this formula,
HI = heat index in degrees Fahrenheit,
R = Relative humidity,
T = Temperature in ∘F,
c1 = -42.379,
c2= -2.04901523,
c3 = -10.14333127,
c4 = -0.22475541,
c5 = -6.83783 x 10−3,
c6 = -5.481717 x 10−2,
c7 = -1.22874 x 10−3,
c8 = 8.5282 x 10−4,
c9 = -1.99 x 10−6
