A junior-kindergartener learned the term “the RealFeel” and, in turn, taught it to us. The RealFeel, an AccuWeather product, takes into account much more than wind. The “wind chill factor” we grew up with is kinda dubious anyway.
Apple Weather, as I just noticed, has a Feels Like temperature, which appears to be a product of the Weather Channel. This morning it’s 36° and Feels Like 24°.
[I didn’t know until I looked online that the RealFeel is protected by two patents. I would guess that Feels Like, too, has one or more patents.]

UK Met Office uses "Feels like" (no caps on the second word) and then the degree symbol ̊ - of course in Celsius not Fahrenheit but that's an easy conversion
