English term or phrase: feels like
Please check the forecast before you go and pay special attention to the “feels like’ part, as sometimes it does feel a little different than the actual temperature. New York City summers are known for high humidity, and the winters might be windy. But during the last couple of years the winters were quite warm and soft, so visiting New York in winter was great experience

temperatura sentida


Explanation:
vs. temperatura real. Este indicador é bastante frequente nos Estados Unidos. Cá em França ("température ressentie"), aparece com mais frequência nos boletins meteorológicos durante o inverno, em especial quando há uma onda de frio. Em Portugal, também ouvi várias vezes falar de "temperatura sentida" quando o frio aperta no inverno.

=> Veja as previsões meteorológicas antes de ir para là, com uma atenção especial para a rúbrica “temperadura sentida"
