Wind Chill Calculation
It appears that maybe the Wind Chill calculation is using the sensor temperature, not the adjusted temperature.
Re: Wind Chill Calculation
Correct, windchill is not affected.
Re: Wind Chill Calculation
OK, so the Wind Chill is based on the sensor (uncorrected) value not the corrected value? I don't think you send the Wind Chill value to the Weather Services, but it seems that it should be based on the corrected value. Maybe I'm misunderstanding?
Re: Wind Chill Calculation
you are understandig correctly, but please also understand that close to nobody is doing sensor calibration anyhow and therefore the business case to drive extreme effort on every side effect on this is very weak. Take it as it is.
Re: Wind Chill Calculation
OK, I just noticed that the Realtime data was wrong, so for me I can just ignore the Wind Chill data. I guess as long as it’s not transmitted it doesn’t really matter if it’s wrong.
BTW - the changes for temperature and humidity have really helped me. Using my CWOP numbers I was constantly high on humidity (rating of mid to high 80%) and a little low on temperature (rating low 90%), and now I'm getting mid to high 90% for both. I'm hoping that after a little more tweaking I can get everything in the high 90s. I've already tweaked my BP to 99%.
