Ah, the lower image looks like a weather app…
Yes, that blue image is. It’s accuweather for IOS. I just posted that as reference to what I thought the real feel temp should be in my area. The top one is HA/Lovelace displaying the “feels like” sensor this custom component creates.
Makes sense. Thanks!
@Limych Can I see an example of grouped sensors with humidity and temp? My yaml keeps throwing up errors when I try.
I don’t understand what difficulties there might be:
# Example of configuration.yaml
group:
weather_group:
entities:
- sensor.temperature
- sensor.humidity
sensor:
- platform: temperature_feels_like
source: group.weather_group
Ah, I had no idea it was that simple! I must have had something out of place then. I just gave up and added them individually to the sensor but Thank you
Or you can write same config without groups:
# Example of configuration.yaml
sensor:
- platform: temperature_feels_like
source: sensor.temperature,sensor.humidity
It’s more simple.
can i use this to figure out if i need a thick jacket or just a t-shirt outside?
problem is that at start and end of summer its hard to tell how it would feel
and it matters if you are in the shade or out in the sun, also humidity and wind will have a say
sensor:
- platform: temperature_feels_like
name: 'Outside Feels Like Temperature'
source:
- sensor.outside_temperature
- sensor.outside_humidity
i guess i need to add wind speed to the config for it to work
Yes, you can. Why not?..
there are just different opinions so hard to judge
some say you cant and some even say that it does not matter, but yeah for me at least there is a difference, no wind and just a little sun is different than storm like wind and no sun
also it makes a difference if you are in the shade or not
but yeah its for sure a spring project, for now i just need my thick jacket as there is no wun and almost storm like conditions and rain for the most part
Hi! New to this custom component.
Super handful, but I have a strange situation (at least from my understanding). Look at my log:
2022-07-11 16:53:17 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.temperature_feels_like.sensor] Temp: 26.0 °C Hum: 32.5 % Wind: 0.0 m/s
2022-07-11 16:53:17 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.temperature_feels_like.sensor] New sensor state is 25.5 °C
The temperature in the house is 26C and it feels like 25.5 ? Is it normal that it returns a lower value than the actual temperature ? There is no windchill in the house (more important, I didn’t put a wind sensor in the “feels_like” sensor) 
I used to work in a weather TV station (Météomédia, but only as a web developer) and when the value was lower than actual temperature we returned the actual temperature. Likewise with the windchill values.
Maybe it’s a little bit “philosophical”, but I think it can be important. Maybe I’m completely wrong too!
Stealing this. I made it work for the inside of my house with my xiaomi sensors.
Took me a bit to figure out “|float” to make the sensor outputs floats not strings and where to place that.
Also took out windspeedmps cause there shouldn’t be a strong breeze inside my house.
{% set temperature = states('sensor.atc_a447_temperature')|float %}
{% set humidity = states('sensor.atc_a447_humidity')|float %}
{% set wvp = (humidity/100) * 6.105 * e**((17.27*temperature) / (237.7 + temperature))%}
{{(temperature + 0.33 * wvp - 4.00)|round(2)}}

I am newbie here, I tried the use the feel like temp sensor add-on with one of my indoor sensor, getting the following . Not sure what I am doing wrong? Please advise.
The value is showing as “unknown”
Here is my configuration.yaml entry looks like and test script:
sensor:
- platform: temperature_feels_like
name: ‘Feels Like Temperature’
source:- sensor.multisensor7_living_air_temperature_2
- sensor.multisensor7_living_humidity_2
alias: Test feels_like_temperature
description: “”

name: 'Guest FLT'
source:
- sensor.wifi_temperature_humidity_sensor_humidity

“Temperature Feels Like” uses the temperature sensor for both inputs and gives a false reading

Fix (for my situation) is to comment out 2 lines like #or entity_id.find(“temperature”) >= 0 at lines 190 & 199
if (
device_class == DEVICE_CLASS_TEMPERATURE
or domain in (WEATHER, CLIMATE)
or unit_of_measurement in TEMPERATURE_UNITS
#or entity_id.find("temperature") >= 0
):
self._temp = entity_id
entities.add(entity_id)
if (
device_class == DEVICE_CLASS_HUMIDITY
or domain in (WEATHER, CLIMATE)
or unit_of_measurement == PERCENTAGE
#or entity_id.find("humidity") >= 0
):
self._humd = entity_id
entities.add(entity_id)
Which gives the correct
sensor.guest_flt

Hi,
thanks for the sensor. Here the sensor getting wrong wind_speed from pirate weather sensor. First define the weather sensor as source and then special outdoor sensor to overwrite these with the real:
- platform: temperature_feels_like
name: Außentemperatur gefühlt
unique_id: temperature_feels_like_hausoputdoor
source:
- weather.pirateweather
- sensor.mmx_hausoutdoor_temp_mean
- sensor.netatmo_terrasse_humidity
Here you can see pirate weather is showing wind_speed 10.3 km/h and temperature_feels_like showing 2.8611?
10.3 km/h = 2.861(1) m/s
OK thank you, then your sensor converts in m/s and so everything is correct.
