"It's a dry heat."
- Everyone in the southwest in unison
"It's not the heat, it's the humidity."
- Southerners
To be fair, I live in a high humidity area and visiting a ‘dry heat’ area was amazing. Being in the shade actually felt refreshing instead of oppressive and stuffy.
Both are so true
Nah cause it's the realest shit there is.
I can deal with sub zero temps but a windy day at 40°f feels like ice cutting into your bones.
This is the same concept as a convection oven.
Cold, but still air? You're going to form a little heat bubble around you that makes it less bad. But as soon as a moderate breeze comes through, you lose that heat bubble. If you're wearing wind resistant clothes, you still have the layer of warm air at your skin.
This is also why blowing on your food cools it off faster. You blow away that protective heat bubble.

Welp.
Ope, gonna scoot right past ya there.
Cold, Wet, Dark anymore than two is a bad time
Hello from Seattle! It's nice here.
I got stuck until 1am last night getting home. Fucking hell it was a cold walk
Where does windy come into play here? Multiplier on cold?
It's a multiplier on cold and transitions x% of wet to cold.
True.
Ah geez
I sweat a lot for a midwesterner. Florida could literally kill me. Also yeah, it also depends if the wind is dry or not.
