This apartment is full of mysteries

Why is the living room so much cooler than my bedroom when the windows in both of them have been open all day (and face the same direction)?

And why is Ki meowing piteously at empty space?

Yes, that's true for the cat, but the open-system thermal exchange can be easily explained via fluid dynamics. Basically, the heat level in your room is isolated from the rest of the apartment by convection currents, which pass the window, creating a barrier across the screen.

I blame Bernoulli.

Can you elaborate? Perhaps with diagrams?
