  • WindChill Index or WCI - The wind chill temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) is how cold people and animals feel when outside. Windchill is based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin caused by wind and cold.

  • Heat Index or HI - is sometimes referred to as the apparent Temperature. The HI, given in degrees Fahrenheit, is a measure of how hot it feels when relative humidity (RH) is added to the actual air temperature.
