Also apparent temperature, felt air temperature, and humiture. A meteorological index that posits the apparent temperature perceived by the average human being who is exposed to a given combination of air temperature and relative humidity in a shaded area. For example, when the air temperature is 32 °C (90 °F) with 70% relative humidity, the ...
Severe weather can occur under a variety of situations, but three characteristics are generally needed: a temperature or moisture boundary, moisture, and (in the event of severe, precipitation-based events) instability in the atmosphere.
Crivăț (strong, very cold north-easterly wind in Moldavia, Dobruja, and the Bărăgan Plain parts of Romania.) Etesian (Greek name) or Meltem (Turkish name) (northerly across Greece and Turkey) Euro (a warm and usually moderate wind from Africa that reaches the Ionian coast of Italy)
The coldest recorded temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere belonged to this climate. The names of some of the places with this climate have become veritable synonyms for the extreme, severe winter cold. [68]
Experts say certain red flags can mean a bigger health issue is at play — for example, episodes of cold hands that are frequent, not easily reversible or are new in those ages 30 years and above ...
Extreme cold warning NPW – Dangerously cold air temperatures and/or wind chills, capable of causing life-threatening medical conditions (such as severe frostbite and hypothermia) or death associated with accelerated heat loss from exposed skin, are forecast to meet or exceed locally defined warning criteria for more than three hours over at ...
Effective temperature, of a body such as a star or planet; Human body temperature; Fever or "having a temperature", the elevation of the body temperature; Noise temperature, a measure of the noise of an electronic component; Temperature (softmax function), a parameter that alters the entropy of the softmax function or Boltzmann distribution
A cold wave is a weather phenomenon that is distinguished by a cooling of the air. Specifically, as used by the U.S. National Weather Service, a cold wave is a rapid fall in temperature within a 24-hour period requiring substantially increased protection for agriculture, industry, commerce, and social activities. The precise criterion for a ...
