A lee wind that blows to the east of the Rockies in Merkinland. It takes its name from a local Indian tribe and means "snow eater". (In wonder if they have a word for "yellow snow eater"?)Originally posted by threaded View Post
As it is warm and dry it often spells the end of the winter's snow.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

A refreshing summer wind known as the Etesian by the Greeks and the Meltemi by those in Turkey.Originally posted by threaded View Post
It is a northerly wind that blows through the central and eastern Mediterranean during the summer. With high pressure over Hungary and low pressure over Turkey, this strong wind brings very welcome cooler weather down across Greece and Turkey, giving some relief from the normal fierce heat.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

Another dry, warm lee wind.Originally posted by vandiss View Post
It is indeed the name of the wind that blows in the European Alps, but it is now used as a generic term for any similar lee wind.
It gains its warmth from the air being compressed as it descends down the lee slope of a mountain and historically has been blamed for symptoms such as headaches, depression and even suicide among people living in its path.
