PPT-Wind Wind  is the natural movement of 

air  or other gases relative to a earths surface Global winds resulting from the difference in absorption of solar energy between the climatic zones on earth Winds occur on a range of scales from thunder storms where flows lasting tens of minutes to local breezes generated by heating of . As the wind increases the body is cooled at faster rate causing the skin temperature to drop Wind Chill does not impact inanimate objects like car radiators and posed water pipes because these objects cannot cool below the actual air temperature Wha 1 23 Chennai C C h The Indian wind is as diverse as the country itself, contributingto India’s distinct character. Above all, it’s the monsoon that shapes the life and culture of the people. Konstantin Vinnikov & Eric . Hohman. (Office of State Climatologist for Maryland).
