There are interesting wind terms out there.

[(Anonymous)]

Squall describes a sudden violent wind often accompanied by rain or snow.

Wuther means to blow with a dull roaring sound, as in Wuthering Heights.

Aeolian means giving forth or marked by a moaning or sighing sound or musical tone produced by or as if by the wind or borne, deposited, produced, or eroded by the wind.

A sirocco is broadly used for any kind of hot, oppressive wind.

Williwaw means a stormy, cold wind that blows down mountains.

Barber means a strong wind carrying damp snow or sleet and spray that freezes upon contact with objects, especially the beard and hair.

Some are more region specific than others. There are ones called Diablo, Brickfielder, Elephanta, Gregale (I don't know why, but this one really amuses me), Maestro, Squamish, Willy-willy, and Warm Braw.

OP

Those are all really cool terms! I had heard of squalls, but I actually hadn’t heard of the rest! I knew about Wuthering Hights, but I didn’t know how it got it’s name. Thanks for sharing!
