Find the value closest to the temperature at the top of the chart and the wind speed to the left. Your wind chill temperature is the value where the imaginary lines drawn from the air temperature ...
Wind chill index values for a range of temperatures and wind speeds, from the standard wind chill formula for Environment Canada. Wind chill (popularly wind chill factor) is the sensation of cold produced by the wind for a given ambient air temperature on exposed skin as the air motion accelerates the rate of heat transfer from the body to the surrounding atmosphere.
FOX6 News invites you to click and print off a copy of the National Weather Service wind chill chart.
If the temperature is 0 degrees and the wind is blowing at 15 mph, the wind chill is 19 degrees below zero. Low wind chill numbers are a sign you need to dress for colder conditions.
Apparent temperature, also known as "feels like", [1] [2] is the temperature equivalent perceived by humans, caused by the combined effects of air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The measure is most commonly applied to the perceived outdoor temperature.
The heat index (HI) is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity, in shaded areas, to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature, as how hot it would feel if the humidity were some other value in the shade. For example, when the temperature is 32 °C (90 °F) with 70% relative humidity, the heat index is 41 °C (106 °F ...
For example, in a scenario where the actual temperature is 10 degrees but the "feels like" temperature is -5 degrees, what that really means is that the wind chill is making it feel as if the air ...
The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans. Unlike a simple temperature measurement, WBGT accounts for all four major environmental heat factors: air temperature, humidity, radiant heat (from sunlight or sources such as furnaces), and air movement (wind or ventilation).
