*0 = Disabled, Cumulus will use wind speed to determine the wind chill ignoring the temperature criterion
*0 = Disabled, Cumulus will use any wind speed of 3 mph or more, to modify the temperature, and determine the wind chill ignoring the temperature criterion
*1 = Enabled (default), Cumulus will use both temperature and wind speed criterions to determine if wind chill applies.
*1 = Enabled (default), Cumulus will use both 10°C temperature and 3  mph wind speed criterions to determine if wind chill applies.
Note if your station is a type that supplies wind chill to Cumulus; that ''CalculatedWC=1'' is needed for this setting to have any effect [i.e. you need to set Cumulus (see parameter directly above) to calculate the wind chill as this setting cannot change how your weather station calculates wind chill].
