Wind Chill
Wed Dec 03, 2003
Listen in RealAudio 
Hi, I'm Bryan Yeaton, and it is time for another Weather Notebook Brainstorm. Our Brainstormer
has decided that, with the ease of looking up a topic on the Internet, he need to demand a
little more information than might be found on your average web search.
This month's question is about Wind Chill. Oh, yes, we want you to explain what it is and who
developed it. But we want to know how it really works. And, why there was such a big to do
about changing the formula.
If you think you can go beyond Google (and trust me, the Brainstormer has been there, and
Yahoo, and AltaVista, and so on...), then we would love to hear what you think Wind Chill is
all about.
To leave your witty and urbane answer with us, just call (888) RAIN-001. Or, in mathematical
terms (888) 724-6001. You can also e-mail us at questions@weathernotebook.org.
If your answer is creative and accurate, well-spoken, or just plain fun, we may use it on the
air, and if we do, we will send you a magic Weather Notebook coffee mug or small plant holder,
depending on how you use it. Plus, your voice will be heard by dozens of folks across the
country and around the world.
Again, we want to know what Wind Chill is REALLY all aboutwhat is it, and how does it affect
you. Plus, who originally developed the formula? We will see if we can get a really in-depth
answer... in our two minutes. Give us a call at (888) RAIN-001.
The Weather Notebook is produced by the Mount Washington Observatory. You can further ponder
the question at www.weathernotebook.org. We are funded by Subaru of America and The National
Science Foundation. Thanks today to questioner Michael Dean.
