Under the new wind chill calculator, none of those readings would have been nearly as extreme. The minus-69 wind chill at St. Louis would be minus-47 under the new formula. Still deadly enough to cause immediate frostbite.

Some parts of east central Kansas may have had wind chills of 70 to 80 degrees below zero on the old wind chill scale around 50 below on the new scale. Some sources say St.Louis wind chill was 71 below zero on the old scale or 48 below zero on the new scale.

My dad had a wind chill of 70 to 80 degrees below zero back in 1982/1983. It comes out to be around -47F to -52F on the new scale. 50 below zero!! All I can say is ouch.

Frostbite time for wind chills of -47F to -52F on the new scale is about 6-8 minutes on exposed flesh.

Wind chill of 56 below in Nashville?! Unfathomable. My mom told me that in 1990, she and my dad went skiing in Maine and the wind chill was 90 below and she couldn't believe they didn't get frostbite.

I remember that cold snap. It was the only time the Hampton Roads Area of Virginia ever got below 0 degrees Fahrenheit and I had to walk almost 2 miles to school that morning because I missed the bus. I about froze my ass that morning. Little to say, I quickly learned my lesson about the consequences of oversleeping that morning.

This was the biggest cold wave since February of 1899. It would be 9 more years before another cold wave would even rival this one, especially in the Ohio Valley. The 80s was a cold decade from the very beginning, especially late winter of 1980, March of 1980, right to the very end, December 1989. Almost every winter that decade had extremely cold temperatures. Christmas 1983, mentioned here, was one, December to February 1982. January of 1982 saw bitter cold, and that was when Air Florida flight 90 crashed in the Potomac River in Washington. 1985-1986 was another. It was bitter cold for Florida, when the Challenger Disaster occurred. The only mild winters wer 1982-1983 (Strong El Nino) and 1988-1989 (Strong La Nina). One final bitter cold wave in December 1989 before the decade ended.

Yeah, the very next morning here in Pensacola, FL, the temperature was recorded at 5 above zero, the coldest temperature ever recorded here. We have not touched single digits since then. Not really touched below 20 degrees except on a few occasions.

Richard Woodberry, the whole extended winter (November to March) of 1984/1985 was very cold in the western contiguous states. Over the three states of Washington, Oregon and Idaho October to March 1984/1985 was the third coldest since 1895, behind only 1916/1917 and 1948/1949. It was among the top ten coldest as far south as Tonopah, Nevada and Bishop, California. October was the coolest on record in parts of Arizona and very cool all through the West, though hot in the East, and December 1984 and March 1985 were similar. January and February were very cold all through the contiguous US except for the Northeast in February, though January 1985 remains the third-warmest on record in Alaska. In fact, that day (January 20) Cape Giradeau was six degrees colder than Barrow, Alaska, and Mobile on the Gulf was colder than Kotzebue! February, however, was cold over Alaska, as was December in the eastern half. (I imagine after January 1977, January 1981 and December 1983 people would not have been surprised at this). Apart from January and February, the extended winter was warmer than average east of the Rockies - in fact December was the warmest until this year in many parts of the South, and remains the warmest in Louisiana.

I lived in Memphis at the time, and the low temperature only got to -4F. There was about 1 inch of ice on the roads and was difficult to drive on even if you were experienced. The weather was colder in December 1989 but the reports were deceptive. The low was -4 F, but because the temperature was 18 F at midnight, that counted as the high for the day, but the afternoon high was actually -2 F, and went back to -4 F the next morning. That was the coldest day ever in Memphis, TN.

@Nunya Bizness A wind chill of -53F was observed on February 15, 2021 in Haigler, NE. Haigler is 1/2 mile from the Kansas border. So it is certain parts of far NW Kansas and far ENE Colorado had wind chills in the minus 50s. These wind chills are using today's formula. I have not heard of a wind chill that cold so far South since December of 1989.
