This is second hand from a friend, but he said he overheard a conversation between 2 coworkers:

Person A: looks like you got some sun this weekend

Person B (badly sunburned): Yeah, I just bought a convertible and did a lot of driving with the top down. I figured that the wind would stop me from getting sunburned, but I guess it wasn't cold enough

Person A: That's... not how that works

    My family always called it windburn. Not that it was caused by the wind, but that because you have airflow you don't feel as hot so you dont think your being burned.

    I got second degree burns over most of my body on a FL beach through sunscreen in the 90s similarly. 0/10 do not recommend.
