I was rushing off to lunch,
and bungled this paragraph,
to be corrected as follows:

TG: - This is a case of air getting cool

JA: As "Case", "Fact", "Rule" are used in this context, this is a Fact,
    in effect, the deductive conclusion "C => A", paraphrased something
    like "the current situation is one in which the air is cooler".
    You can tell it's a Fact because it is taken as 100% certain,
    a done deal, that the air is cooler.  If the ambler doubts
    his senses, that is a horse of another cooler, and not
    at all the situation that we are discussing here.
