Reflecting the current poor performance in science many candidates,
some of them with top physics degrees, used to answer, somewhat
intutitively but totally incorrectly, that the temperature would fall.
I had an argument with a mechanic a long time ago; he swore blind that car
radiators could ice up even if the air temperature was above freezing due to
wind-chill effects.



If the air is quite dry and moisture around the radiator evaporates due to
increased velocity then the temperature around the radiator will fall. So the
mechanic could have been correct.
