Where does "colder than a witches tit" and "colder than a well digger's nut sack" rank on that chart? Somewhere to the far left I figure.

Op showed an "old" chart. Note that 30 degrees at 55mph is a wind chill of -8.

In North Dakota, we are very familiar with wind chill. I think you are given that chart at the hospital with every new baby.
