downslope wind

In Figure 2 the downslope wind changed to upslope during hour 18.

The weather people had set for cool and crisp, with brisk downslope winds.

Downslope winds off the Rocky mountains can aid in forming the dry line.

The Tharsis downslope winds had started, and would only get stronger as the afternoon progressed.

Winds that flow over mountains down into lower elevations are known as downslope winds.

Not all downslope winds are katabatic.

The Lahaina winds are also downslope winds, but are somewhat different.

The climate depends on a number of variables from proximity to water, elevation, and protection from northern weather due to downslope winds.

Fairwood's location closer to downslope winds from the Cascade Mountains means it can get fairly hot in the summers.

Winds of this strength due to downslope winds off terrain have been known to shatter windows and sandblast paint from cars.

Maryland has a wide array of climates, due to local variances in elevation, proximity to water, and protection from colder weather due to downslope winds.

Strong cold downslope winds of the Bora type appear in winter and are most severe in the Bay of Risan.

Downslope winds occur on the leeward side of mountain barriers when a stable air mass is carried over the mountain by strong winds that increase in strength with height.

A regional downslope wind whose source is so cold that it is experienced as a cold wind, despite compression warming as it descends the lee slope of a mountain range.

Sublimation of snow directly into water vapor is most likely to occur on a dry and windy day such as when a strong downslope wind, such as a Chinook wind, exists.

In the fall, downslope winds called locally "Sundowners" can raise normal temperatures into the high 90s creating very dry conditions, increasing the chance of brush fires in the foothills north of the city.

He was flying as fast as the Bean's two good antigrav thrusters could push them through the drag of downslope winds, but he was afraid it still wasn't going to be fast enough.

A graduate student working under Alfred Bedard, a N.O.A.A. scientist who specializes in downslope winds, hopes to create a computer simulation of the performance of a Boeing 737 in such conditions.

Silt and clay from the glaciers accumulated in these lakes: when the lakes dried at the end of the ice age, the silt and clay were blown by the downslope wind off the Plateau.

This differential lapse rate (dependent upon both difference in conductive heating and adiabatic expansion and compression) results in the formation of warm downslope winds (e.g., Chinook winds, Santa Ana winds, etc.).

For the premiere the daily downslope wind in Noctis was augmented by some fierce katabatic gusts from the storm, and the music fluctuated like a composition, mournful, angry, dissonant or in sudden snatches harmonic: it seemed the work of a mind, an alien mind perhaps, but certainly something more than random chance.
