The number of BTU's you have at your disposal is fixed, but the thermal losses are greatly increased. It's the initial temperature, outside-in, and final temperature, inside-out, of this little open system that starts your nose to dribble. And these things don't happen in a linear way either.

We could speculate about this forever; the only way to know for sure is to sharpen up your ice scraper for the inside of the windscreen and head out for Donner Pass.
