- Changes to deal with undefined values used for calculations to avoid warnings.
To make it easier to check for undefined values, some calculations were moved
into functions.
- Windchill is now returned as undefined for temperatures above 50 F or
wind speeds below 4 mph.
- The knots to mph conversion is slightly different.
- The distance conversion is slightly different.
- We now round results instead of truncating them to integers, which
will provide slightly different answers in some cases.
