Thermal indices

Before submitting a new icon contribution, please confirm the following:

• I have searched all issues to make sure there isn't a request for this icon.
• I have searched the current library to make sure the icon doesn't already exist.
• I understand that brand icons are no longer being added and I can use SimpleIcons for my brand icon needs.
• I have followed the Material guidelines for system icons.

Tell us about your contribution.

Hi I add this as single issue since its in regard of similar icons. In this case it's like the title says icons for thermal indices. Those icons are used for a custom integration that exposes those indices as sensors. Having distinguishable icon makes it easier to read them when shown in a combined box. Especially without text.

Tell me if it would be better to separate this issue in separate issues per icon.

Here are the icons in action:

Heat Index

An index that combines air temperature and relative humidity, to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature.
I used the thermometer with a fire element attached. While it doesn't make sense in that fire is part of the index, the idea is to represent the Heat in Heat Index.

Dew Point

The dew point is the temperature at which liquid first forms from a vapor.

Frost Point

Frost point, temperature, below 0° C (32° F), at which moisture in the air will condense as a layer of frost on any exposed surface.

Simmer(Summer) Index

An index that combines air temperature and relative humidity. In contrast to the Heat Index it describes the human-perceived equivalent temperature at night and describes a factor of discomfort.

@goyney May i ask what is confusing about this submission?

[mririgoyen]

Not confused, more like unsure. I do not like how portions of the icons are being cut out by the thermometer. I also question whether the thermometers are actually needed, which would mean we have all those icons already.

Thanks, I appreciate the honest feedback. I understand that your team probably doesn't have much time with the amount of issues you have to work trough, but it really makes a difference for the person trying to contribute.

The work for the icons is already done for the custom icon pack so i thought i try to upstream them. But i fully understand that if they go against your projects goal it's better to just keep them in the icon pack. Thanks for your time.

Looking through this and do agree, but does make me think we could have more generic dew-point icons. Even if it's like...

• 💧+ ° = water-degrees
• Thermometer + 💧 = thermometer-water

[mririgoyen]

Added a water variant of thermometer. Aliased with dew-point.

Added a thermometer variant of snowflake (to match sun-thermometer). Aliased with frost-point.

Aliased sun-thermometer with heat-index.

All the others seem very niche and could be solved by other already existing icons.

Just stumbled upon this... the upper arm of the snowflake in snowflake-thermometer seems to have gotten malformed somehow.

Furthermore, I'm not sure if it wouldn't be better in terms of consistency to also have a big water drop on the left and a small thermometer on the right in the thermometer-water icon. Although, it could then be misinterpreted as water temperature... just seems a little inconsistent when both items are viewed side-by-side...

[mririgoyen]

Thanks for catching the malformed snowflake, that's been fixed.

[mririgoyen]

I've added water-thermometer as well. Can't hurt to have both, depending on where you want the emphasis.

Unsure if I should be making a new request, but I figured I'd try here with an issue already opened before.

I am looking for a snowflake and heat icon for my thermostat, but I wish there was also a way to categorize it as idle, while maintaining the mode that the thermostat is on.

So I was hoping to suggest an icon that is similar to this:

https://materialdesignicons.com/icon/snowflake-check

but has a moon/sleep icon instead of the checkmark:

https://materialdesignicons.com/icon/power-sleep

Similarly, the radiator and fire icons would also be updated.

If I should instead make a new issue, please let me know.
