Understanding Wind Chill - National Weather Service
WEBThe wind chill temperature is how cold people and animals feel when outside. Wind chill is based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin caused by wind and cold. As the wind increases, it draws heat from the body, driving down skin temperature and eventually the internal body temperature.

WEB5 days ago · Below is a chart that shows the wind chill for various air temperatures and wind speeds. The colors represent a frostbite indicator, showing the points where temperature, wind speed and exposure time will produce frostbite on humans.
Wind Chill Safety - National Weather Service
WEBThe combination of wind and low temperature in winter can be deadly. The wind chill index helps you determine when dangerous conditions develop that could lead to frostbite or hypothermia. It takes into account heat loss from the human body to its surroundings during cold and windy weather.
Wind Chill - National Weather Service
WEBWind Chill is the term used to describe the rate of heat loss from the human body resulting from the combined effect of low temperature and wind. As winds increase, heat is carried away from the body at a faster rate, driving down both the skin temperature and eventually the internal body temperature.
WEBWhat is Wind Chill Temperature? It is the temperature it “feels like” outside and is based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin caused by the effects of wind and cold.
Wind Chill - NOAA's National Weather Service - Glossary
WEBWind Chill. Reference to the Wind Chill Factor; increased wind speeds accelerate heat loss from exposed skin, and the wind chill is a measure of this effect. No specific rules exist for determining when wind chill becomes dangerous.
