If I'm driving at 60mph with the windows down, is the air entering through the open windows equivalent to a 60mph wind reported by meteorologists?

This came up during a discussion while driving, of course. If on the weather channel a meteorologist says a storm produces 60mph wind gusts, is that equivalent to what I feel while driving 60mph with the windows down?

You would feel the 60 mph wind by sticking your arm way out from the car to get away from the flow of air going over your car, which would be slower than the 60 mph, although probably not by a lot. The air coming in your car is substantially slowed for a number of reasons (it is already slower because it's from the inside of the flow, and it's hitting essentially non-moving air inside the car).
