DEWPOINT
The dew point at Plas Farm is currently -0.8°C. The dew point is the temperature to which the air must be cooled for saturation (100%) relative humidity to occur, providing there is no change in water content. The dew point is an important measurement used to predict the formation of dew, frost and fog.

APPARENT TEMPERATURES
Whilst the temperature outside the holiday cottages is currently -0.5°C, it is likely that it will feel slightly different due to factors such as the wind and relative humidity. Our weather station calculates three apparent temperature readings: Wind Chill, Heath Index, and the Temperature/Humidity/Wind (THW) Index.

WIND CHILL
The Wind Chill temperature reading is currently -1.1°C. The faster the wind blows, the faster heat is carried away from out bodies and the colder we feel. Wind has a warming effect at higher temperatures.

HEAT INDEX
The Heat Index temperature is currently -0.5°C. The Heat Index uses temperature and relative humidity to determine how hot the air actually "feels". If the humidity is high, it will feel hotter outside the cottages because your perspiration will evaporate more slowly.

TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY/WIND (THW) INDEX
The THW Index is currently -1.1°C. The THW Index uses humidity and temperature like for the Heat Index, but also includes the cooling effects of the wind to calculate an apparent temperature of what it "feels like" outside your holiday cottage.
