Field notes
The page describes a hybrid data path: Open-Meteo model analysis is refreshed about every 15 minutes, while a PAGASA station reading is used for a division only when the station is within 40 km and its report is under six hours old. Heat index is calculated with the NWS Rothfusz regression, with a simpler Steadman result below 80°F. The site says school counts rely on a DepEd report dated 25 October 2025, which it identifies as the latest nationwide table available when checked on 4 November 2026.
