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.
The heat index and humidex measure the effect of humidity on the perception of temperatures above +27 °C (81 °F). In humid conditions, the air feels much hotter, because less perspiration evaporates from the skin. The wind chill factor measures the effect of wind speed on cooling of the human body below 10 °C (50 °F). As airflow increases ...
A cold weather advisory (formerly known as a wind chill advisory until October 2024) [1] is a hazardous weather statement issued by Weather Forecast Offices (WFO) of the National Weather Service (NWS) in the United States to alert the public that temperatures or wind chills are forecast to reach values low enough that it poses a threat to human health and life if adequate protection is not ...

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.
In the United States an extreme cold warning was an experimental weather warning issued by the National Weather Service in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota. [5] The warning was issued if the temperature fell to −35 °F (−37 °C) or colder with a wind of less than 5 mph (8 km/h; 2 m/s). [6]
Also catabatic wind, drainage wind, or fall wind. A local wind that carries cold, high-density air from a higher elevation downslope under the force of gravity as a result of the radiative cooling of the upland ground surface at night, usually at speeds on the order of 10 kn (19 km/h) or less but occasionally at much higher speeds.
