The State of Nevada is a state located in the western region of the United States of America. The capital is Carson City and the largest city is Las Vegas. The state's nickname is "The Silver State" due to the large number of silver deposits that were discovered and mined there. In 1864, Nevada became the 36th state to enter the union, and the phrase "Battle Born" on the state flag reflects the state's entry on the Union side during the American Civil War. Its first settlement was called Mormon Station.

  • WidipediA: Wind Chill

    Wind chill is the apparent temperature felt on exposed skin, which is a function of the air temperature and wind speed. The wind chill temperature (often popularly called the wind chill factor) is always lower than the air temperature, except at higher temperatures where wind chill is considered less important. In cases where the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature, the heat index is used instead.

  • WidipediA: Heat Index

    A good example of the difference between heat index and true temperature would be comparing the climates of Miami and Phoenix. Miami averages around 90 °F in summer due to the easterly trade winds coming from the Atlantic Ocean, but it has a high humidity (e.g. 75%). Phoenix averages around 104 °F in summer, but typically has a low humidity (e.g. 10%). According to the heat index, the relative temperature in Miami will be 109.5 °F, but the relative temperature in Phoenix will be lowered due to the lower humidity, to around 98.6 °F. Given clear skies, Miami is likely to feel hotter than Phoenix.
