Hi All: Please send me comments on how can I convert HIDX values in deg F, to deg C. Many Thanks!

Franscico,

In Analysis/Moisture pull down menu shows Heat Index (HIDX) and I guess yours shows deg F and not deg C.
Find the digatmos.mnu file located in C:\Documents and Settings\???????\Local Settings\Application Data\DigitalAtmosphere

Please note: ??????? is my computer name.

Open in Notepad or any editor and locate Moisture and Heat Index
Below is the line in my menu and displays in deg C

Heat Index (deg C) |CONT CINT=1 COLOR=0:0:50 DEGC HIDX

Always remember to save a copy of the original digatmos.mnu file as a precaution before making any modifications.
