Talk:Foehn wind

message: In Japan the Föhn wind is known as the フェーン現象(fehn phenomenon) which blows from China to the east. Although well known, it is not however popularly associated with sicknes or madness just with discomfort. Is this comment worthy of inclusion or it it off beam? --Tokyoguru 02:59, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Care should be taken in listing which winds are actually fohn-type and which are not.  The characteristic of a fohn (and the chinook) is windward precipitation, release of latent heat, resulting in higher heat in the downslope wind on the lee side at equivalent elevations, a result of the difference between dry and moist adiabatic rates.

message: After living through a gray, wet, cold winter just outside Munich, my wife and I woke one morning to blue skies, exhilarating dry air, and warm sun. While we flourished and came alive, our neighbors all felt miserable and declared themselves victims of Föhnkrankheit. I found their reactions difficult to understand.
Foehn is for those with typewriters that can't type vowels with umlauts, I believe. Jim Lacey (talk) 20:53, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Chinook is the native american indian term meaning snow eater. This article has a definite European bias and needs to be re-written. Especially remove the whole reference to the hairdryer.
:Chinook is mentioned in the local versions section with a linked article. Rmhermen (talk) 02:48, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

message: There are several references mentioned on the Nor'west arch page concerning the psychologic effects of such winds, e.g. "The Nor'wester has a deep psychological effect on many people subjected to its hot, dry nature. It has been statistically linked to increases in suicide and domestic violence". I have heard (but did not quickly find a good reference to it) the theory that the "Ides of March", that Julius was to beware, was commonly understood to mean a time of "madness" due to such winds in Italy due to charged ions in the wind when it blew at that time. Probably these two things are related. Maitchy (talk) 00:41, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I know next to nothing about weather, but my limited understanding is that precipitation on the mountain is an adiabatic process (no heat transfer into a system) where the expansion of the warm moist air as it rises causes an energy loss, reflected as a temperature drop in the system, that then causes the moisture to precipitate out as water or snow.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.78.92.165 (talk) 04:15, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
