Jim - at the risk of starting a whole new thread, "Wind Chill" applies
only
to living things (animate) that have a circulating system (blood).
Inanimate objects like machinery may cool faster if wind currents blow
on
them, but the concept of lower than ambient "wind chill" temperatures
does
NOT apply!
So when the weather man says the temperature is -10, with a wind chill
of -25, that does not mean that a block of metal sees anything other
than -10.
I prefer to think that it applies to both, but the common tables
aren't designed for dry inanimate objects. So, your car's
'feels as cold as X in still air' number will be different
than yours, but the effect still applies so long as the
thing is warmer than ambient.
