Hi Brendon,
I just added the three new parameters to the list. If you download the
nightly release tomorrow, you will be able to display relative humidity,
wind chill and heat index in the METAR dataset with some minor changes in
the layout model.
I did some tests to compare the result with online calculator, but
obviously not enough. Please report to us if you see any bug in the result.
Thanks,
Yuan
