Yes, but wind chill is about evaporation of moisture on exposed skin making it "feel colder". Wind chill or ram air over your engine and radiator will never lower the temp below ambient.
Why the news often ONLY shows "wind chill" temps makes me mad. I want actual temp to plan for pipes, plants and of course VISCOSITY! They just like the spectacular numbers I guess.
