(2) Is there a quantifiable relationship between wind velocity and temperature, that is, is the air in a 20 knot wind on a 20-degree day warmer than still air at that temperature (because of thermal effects from the larger motion)? If there is a relationship, it could be included in the wind-chill index (opposite sign from the evaporative cooling factor, of course). If you don't think milli-degrees make a difference, you haven't had to talk yourself into going to work when it's 25 below and blowing hard. Just trying to keep warm. It's not that easy on a motorcycle. -- *** *** JE MAINTIENDRAI ***** ***** ****** ****** 17 Jan 84 [28 Nivose An CXCII] ken perlow ***** ***** (312)979-7261 ** ** ** ** ..ihnp4!ihuxq!ken *** ***
