## Description

This MCP server provides precise calculations of the heat index (apparent temperature) using the NOAA Rothfusz regression. It helps determine how hot it actually feels by combining air temperature and relative humidity. The tool includes Steadman's adjustments for low humidity or specific high-temperature conditions to ensure accuracy. Use `get_heat_index` to find the perceived temperature and health risk level, or `get_risk_thresholds` to see the boundaries for caution levels.

## Tools

### get_heat_index
Calculates the perceived temperature and determines the health risk level

### get_risk_thresholds
Retrieves the specific temperature and humidity boundaries used to define the different caution levels

### validate_environmental_conditions
Checks if a set of inputs falls into the specific atmospheric windows requiring Steadman's adjustment

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the heat index if the temperature is 95°F and humidity is 60%?
```

**Response:** 
```
The heat index is 115°F, which falls under the Extreme Danger level.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the heat index for 30°C and 45% humidity.
```

**Response:** 
```
The heat index is 86.3°F (30.2°C), which is categorized as Caution.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is it dangerous to be outside at 85°F with 50% humidity?
```

**Response:** 
```
The heat index is 88°F, which is in the Caution level. It is generally manageable for most healthy individuals.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How accurate is the heat index calculation?**
The tool uses the NOAA Rothfusz regression and applies Steadman's adjustments for specific environmental conditions to provide highly accurate apparent temperature readings.

**What are the caution levels?**
The caution levels include Caution, Extreme Caution, Danger, and Extreme Danger, based on the calculated heat index and associated physiological risks.

**Can I use Celsius instead of Fahrenheit?**
Yes, you can specify the temperature unit as 'C' for Celsius or 'F' for Fahrenheit when using the tools.
