How do you calculate wind chill?

In order to calculate the wind chill information about the temperature and the wind speed is required. The formula is wind chill index Twc = 13.12 + 0.6215Ta - 11.37V0.16 + 0.3965TaV0.16. Where Ta is the temperature in celsius and V is the wind speed in km/h. Twc differs from Ta only if V is greater than 4.8. Click on the link below where there is a wind chill calculator.
