Can someone explain how a wind chill is determined. If a thermometer is reading 0, that is the temperature. If it reads minus 10, we feel that temperature and notice its cooler.
But how is wind chill determined? Is a group of humans placed in a room that is 0 to get a starting spot. Then gradually moved into colder rooms? Then then next phase is staying in a 0 degree room and increasing air movement until the collective group agree's that this air movment feels like the -10 felt earlier?
Sorry for the odd explanation but that's the only way I can picture it in my head.
