Bad Wind Chill Values

Good morning!  We have noticed a couple of bad wind chill readings in Iris this Sunday morning from WFO Tallahassee.  Screenshot is attached.  Fortunately the wind chill is not 0 here.  ☺

Hi Don,

This is the same METAR zero bug as for max/min temperature. Patch coming tomorrow.

Thanks,
Matt
