Wind chill has always been a bit confusing to me. Maybe the smart people on here can explain it better.
I'm driving to work this morning and the OAT was 11F. There's a bit of ice on my windshield and I ran the defrost all the way to work, about 20 miles. Anytime I'm stopped at a stop sign or red light the ice would immediately begin to melt and slide down the windshield. As soon as I started driving, especially over 25-30 it would freeze right back up despite the warm air from the defrost on the windshield.
The difference has to be the wind from driving. Isn't that essentially wind chill? I thought wind chill wouldn't have affected that as I've always understood it to not affect inanimate objects like metal, glass, etc. I thought wind chill simply made it feel colder than it actually is to flesh, but wouldn't affect whether water would actually freeze sooner or not.
