"If you hate running in the cold weather, here's a tip that might help: Toss your running gear in the dryer for few minutes
before getting dressed. Then you'll feel nice and toasty when you start your run." - Beth Moxey Eck, Runner's World
Wind Chill Chart For the first time, the new Wind Chill Chart includes a frostbite
indicator, showing the points where temperature, wind speed and exposure time will produce frostbite on humans. The chart
above includes three shaded areas of frostbite danger.
Each shaded area shows how long (30,10 and 5 minutes) a person
can be exposed before frostbite develops. For example, a temperature of 0°F and a wind speed of 15 mph will produce a wind
chill temperature of -19°F. Under these conditions, exposed skin can freeze in 30 minutes.
