WIDE MOUTH

If the hot Santa Ana winds had a
logo, this would be perfect- - outrageous &
over the top.

Our hot winds arrive in the Autumn, creating
wildfire hazards, then morph into cold winds
all winter. When they stop for a bit, we all
sigh in relief.

Here are several other winds:

SIROCCO: another hot wind, originating
in the deserts of North Africa, that menace the Mediterranean coast countries.

HELM: the only named wind in the UK,
that hits the southwest slope of Cumbria.

MISTRAL: a cold, dry wind blowing over
Europe.

CHINOOK: a warm dry wind that blows down the eastern side of the Rocky Mountain, in the US, at the end of Winter.

BORA: cold, very strong wind in the area of the Adriatic Sea in Europe.

There are a lot more named winds, but the windiest city in the world is
Wellington, New Zealand.
