Even a triple pane window is only about an R5 so the air is rising to the window, cooling and dropping, I wouldn't think it would be too noticeable though. I had a couple in a bedroom about 7 ft from the floor and never noticed anything though a couple SK winters.
Sure there's not a draft getting through them? They don't have much to seal between the window frame and the structure. if the seal is old and compressed a good breeze could get up under them. Not much blocking wind on a roof.
