(“wind-chill” or windchill, (popularly wind chill factor) is the perceived decrease in air temperature felt by the body on exposed skin due to the flow of air)
.
(wind chill numbers are always lower than the air temperature for values where the formula is valid)
(when the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature, the heat index is used instead)
(on windy days the speed of moisture evaporation from your skin increases and serves to move heat away from your body making it feel colder than it actually is)
The exception to this rule, however, is when higher temperatures are concerned.
(at higher temperatures, wind chill is considered far less significant)
Instead humidity plays a greater role.
(when a human being perspires, the water in his or her sweat evaporates)
(this results in the cooling of the body as heat is carried away from it)
(when humidity is high, the rate of evaporation and cooling is reduced, resulting in it feeling hotter than it actually is)
.
(using these facts we use a formula to adjust the air temperature based on our understanding of ‘wind chill’ at lower temperatures, ‘heat index’ at higher temperatures and a combination of the 2 in between)
