It is based upon charts available from the U.S. National Weather Service.

The Heat Index represents how an average person feels relative to climate
conditions. For a given temperature, the higher the humidity, the higher the heat
index will be.

The Heat Index is defined over a temperature range of 70°F to 120°F (21°C to
49°C) and a relative humidity range of 30% to 99%. Outside of this range, the
meter will show dashes in the display for the Heat Index.

Humidex :

The Humidex, use primarily in Canada, works on the same concept as the
Heat Index. The values are slightly different. The Humidex is defined over a
temperature range of 70°F to 109°F (21°C to 43°C) and a relative humidity range
of 20% to 99%. Outside of this range, the meter will show dashes in the display
for the Humidex.

Wind Chill Temperature:

The Wind chill temperature (Twc), use by the U.S. and Canadian weather services,
which is determined by iterating a model of skin temperature under various wind
speeds and temperatures.

The Wind chill temperature is defined over a temperature range of -58°F to +41°F
(-50°C to +5°C) and a wind speed above 176 ft/m (0.9m/s). Outside of this range,
the meter will show dashes in the display for the Wind chill temperature.
