mildly mind-blowing fact of the day for you: we don’t actually have the ability to feel temperature with our skin. Instead we feel heat transfer. That’s why when you get in a cold pool, it eventually stops feeling cold; the temperature of your skin and the water has equalized and you no longer feel heat transfer.

That makes sense... I guess it's why you don't feel cold traveling in a hot air balloon.  You're moving with the wind, and so no heat is getting transferred.
