Why does wind feel “cold” even if the air around is very warm

Surely the combined air molecules that are hitting your skin have the same temperature and possibly even more due to the increased kinetic energy?

Because you’re constantly sweating and wind helps evaporation.
If your skin was 100% dry and you had wind blowing with an air temp higher than your body temp it would feel even warmer.
