wind chill
Wind chill! It's time to add a seasonal wind chill conversion grid to the site.
Thermals are good.

Dunno, would that be encouragement to be stupid or not? By coincidence, I was cleaning up my desktop yesterday and saw the EC "Chilldex" (or whatever) program I downloaded last winter. Works OK as a little stand-alone but doesn't give anything >0 degrees. I want to know what 5 deg and 30 kt wind is, forinstance (or maybe not, that is just too hard on the hands!). At least we could calculate it when it is too extreme for us web cam lurkers!
