    Hi Guys

    Possibly my imagination, but when I stepped outside around 7pm this evening, it felt unbelievably cold and I could see my own breath.
    Weather websites said it was ten degrees, but it didn't feel anywhere near that. I'm in the south city area.

    Anyone else experience this?

    Max :eek:

    I experienced the same thing. I was in town freezing. My hands were numb with the cold. It was mainly wind chill. Weather stations only check static air and not wind

    Aaaaaah.....that explains it. Thanks for taking the time :)
    I never knew that wind chill wasn't factored, but I guess
    that because we don't tend to have weather extremes,
    like closer to the Arctic circle, its largely superfluous.
    I never tire of learning things on boards!
    Thanks again :)

    I a few people who said they like how it rarely rains in Dublin. But the wind chill kills.
