It depends on the humidity as HI is an approximate equivalent (i.e. feels like) temperature due to reduced evaporation of sweat from our exposed skin.

Here in Fl. we often have a HI above 100-105 with an ambient in the very low 90's.

Sorry for lack of info. Hi temp is 93. The humidity is around 70 which isn't bad for around here.

Well, also from sunny FloriDuh, if your batteries are perspiring, better bring her home.

Ambient temp affects the UAS. HI affects the pilot only.
