> 1. The dampness of air can increase how cold you feel on a cold day and how hot you feel on a hot day. Wind makes you feel cooler no matter what the temperature is out. My question is, if a dry wind makes you "feel" ten degrees cooler than you would without the wind, would a damp wind, blowing at the same speed, change how much cooler you would feel?

1. Chill factors are a function of temperature, humidity and wind speed. I don't know the formula for calculating chill factors, I just leave that up to the weatherman on TV.

2. The Tennessee/Georgia border at Chattanooga is the most crossed boundry in the world, and I do most of the crossing. Unlike most Tennesseans, I don't go to Georgia just for the cheap gas and lottery tickets. I have grandchildren there.

3. I have no qualifications for answering this question, but I refuse to take off my hat to prove it.
