No, on the contrary, I was correcting something you wrote that other people picked up. Something misleading, because you assigned a unit to where I understood no unit should have been assigned. Apparently you are right and the "heat index" unit is Deg F, like in "feeled temperature", although it is a combination of actual temperature and humidity (the two dimensions in your chart). I assumed that the result would be just an index without unit, but wikipedia tells me that the result is Deg F as well. Which is kind of stupid, and misleading as we see by other people picking it up as if London had experienced 115′F actual temperature (which would have been some horrible event).
