A Wind Chill Calculator
Wind Chill is a measurement of the cooling effect that wind
has on the human body. As wind speed increases, it also increases the rate
at which a body loses heat, so the air on a windy day feels cooler than the
true measured temperature with a thermometer. This heat loss can be calculated
for various combinations of wind speed and air temperature and then converted
to a wind chill equivalent temperature, called a wind chill factor.
NOTE:
Contrary to some other "JavaScript Wind Chill Calculators"
that I have found on the Internet that were based on an old formula and are
incorrect today. This one Works Correctly, Compared to the new formula posted
at the National Weather Service!

NOTE: This formula and My Calculator is Only Accurate in the range between -50 to +50 Degrees Celsus.
