This past November, the National Weather Service began using a newly created chart that is thought to more accurately display wind chill factors. The previous index was over 60 years old.

The new chart and information as to how (and why) it was revamped can be found at: ggweather.com

An Antarctic ice shelf the size of a small country has disintegrated under the impact of global warming, scientists said March 19, 2002. Although scientists at the British Antarctic Survey predicted four years ago the eventual disintegration of the giant Larsen B ice shelf -- 1,255 square miles and 655 feet deep -- they were astounded by the speed of the break up.
