I understand about the wind and the cold, but like ABK said, how come the windows in the terminal don't break? I still don't get it. It can be pretty cold and windy at 35,000 feet too. How come the windshields don't break then?
The cold at altitude is applied evenly by airflow...maybe the gusts applied uneven cold shocks to heated windshields?
