Default wind

I've noticed the same effect whether it's windy or calm. The only difference is that the lake's cooling speeds up when it's windy. No doubt churning of colder water from below has something to do with it, but if the evap. cooling is the primary thing, then I think the wind would just speed up that process like it does to your skin when you get out of the water on a dry day. Any thoughts?
