They also create clippers on their way to states, hence the term Alberta Clipper.

  I feel so uneducated on weather lol. I had no idea what a Chinook or Clipper were before now.

    Chinook is a helicopter and a Clipper is a basketball player.

Does wind chill make water freeze faster?

  Yes. It pulls the surface heat out faster. But, the lakes have been frozen over for weeks now, (18" on the lake I live next to-- we are driving pickup trucks on it to go ice fishing).

  I think so. Wind chill is a roundabout way of comparing the capacity for heat extraction of moving air vs stagnant air.
