cold day

We hit our cold cut off at work on thursday, which means that if the actual air temp hits -10 degrees or -21 windchill the company, in their great wisdom, deems it to unsafe to work.
Now what is the definition of wind chill. It is the actual air comparitive of temperature with the factor of wind, right.
So if it is -10 with no wind, it feels like -10. If it is -1 with a wind of 10 mph (and I am guessing), the wind chill is near-20 to-25 .
I have been in construction for 17 years and I can tell you, without a doubt, would rather work in -20 actual air temp than even -5 windchill..
huh that is all I got, you figure out the rest
