If you are driving 60 km /hour, you’re traveling 1 km / minute. If you’re driving 120km / hour, you’re traveling 2 km /minute. That’s double the distance in the same freezing cold. That’s why it was showing -22°C. For real it was only -11°C. Of course this doesn’t make any sense, that’s why the call it windchill :-)
