WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The NIST radio station, WWVB, is located in Ft. Collins, and transmits the exact time signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal antenna in the Weather Station. However, due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The Weather Station will search for a signal every night when reception is best. The WWVB radio station derives its

HEAT INDEX: Heat Index combines the effects of heat and humidity. It is the apparent temperature of how hot it feels to a human being. When relative humidity increases, the air feels warmer than it actually is because your body is less able to cool effectively by evaporation of perspiration. Note: Heat index will be the same number as the temperature until the temperature is above 80 degrees °F (26.7°C). View Heat Index: From a normal display press the HEAT/DEW button once and the
