Winter Field Day (WFD) is an annual ham radio event on the last full weekend of January, where operators set up temporary stations to practice emergency communication in harsh winter conditions, focusing on disaster preparedness, using off-grid power (like batteries/solar), and making contacts in cold, snowy environments to test gear and skills for real-world emergencies. It's a fun, challenging exercise mirroring the summer ARRL Field Day, but with unique winter obstacles like cold, wind, and snow, encouraging skills in portable operation and resilience.
