Wet Bulb Tracker is an iOS app that sends alerts and forecasts based on wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT), a measure of heat stress that accounts for humidity. It implements a hybrid Liljegren & Dimiceli/Piltz model in Swift and presents risk levels with color-coded guidance. The project is interesting for making a complex physiological metric accessible to everyday users.

Target audience: general public, outdoor workers, health-conscious individuals
