The NWS Wind Chill Temperature (WCT) Index uses advances in science, technology, and computer modeling to provide an accurate, understandable, and useful
formula for calculating the dangers from winter winds and freezing temperatures. The index does the following:
• Calculates wind speed at an average height of 5 feet, the typical height of an adult human face, based on readings from the national standard height of
33 feet, which is the typical height of an anemometer
. Is based on a human face model
. Incorporates heat transfer theory based on heat loss from the body to its surroundings, during cold and breezy/windy days
▪ Lowers the calm wind threshold to 3 mph
Uses a consistent standard for skin tissue resistance
. Assumes no impact from the sun, i.e., clear night sky.
