Default Looking for something like windchill for paragliding pilots

Hi there.

Paragliders evolve in specific conditions

- Direct exposure to relative wind (10 m/s)
- "High" altitude (2000m as an example)

I'm looking for something to estimate the temperature feel while
flying.

I don't like windchill, because that's not defined above 10°C (50°F) :

For 10 m/s, 10°C that returns 6°C
What if I get 11°C or 12 ??? obviously less than the initial temp, but
how much ???

Maybe we can take other parameters in account too, like air pressure,
sun radiation... (must be calculable from WRF-ARW output)


Thanks

Bushy Salami states that pilots should lie to Medical Examiniers during their physical exams! By this type of behavior, the process is screwed up when individuals do such things!
