聖塔安那風

圣塔安娜风（）是南加州特有的強烈季节性下坡风，其起源于加州内陆並影响沿海的南加利福尼亞州和北下加利福尼亚半岛，並因極度乾燥而經常在加州引起野火。 "(White)Scholars who have looked into the name's origins generally agree that it derives from Santa Ana Canyon, the portal where the Santa Ana River -- as well as a congested Riverside (CA-91) Freeway -- leaves Riverside County and enters Orange County. When the Santa Anas blow, winds can reach exceptional speeds in this narrow gap between the Puente Hills and Santa Ana Mountains."
