I remember clearly when it was that they came out with wind chill because I was working as a ski patrolman at the time and we were tasked with explaining it to the skiers all day. They also gave us wallet sized cards that gave the wind chill for a given temperature and wind speed. This was, I believe, 1969 when we found out how cold we had always been while out working, playing or just walking somewhere in the wind, but we never knew it. Back then we didn't worry about layers either. You just had a tee shirt, your flannel shirt, and a heavy winter jacket. If you were going to be out for awhile you would put on some coveralls and a sweater under the heavy jacket. Now all they talk about is lots of layers as if you could be snuggie warm with twenty light weight dress shirts on. We had no high performance boots or gloves either. We had deerskin mittens with a wool liner, and a pair of high green hunting boots with two pairs of stockings. We would stay out in the cold for hours like that.
