Did you know that word "Chinook" means snow eater

These Chinook winds ocurr during the months November to May. Eventhough these Chinook winds occur during summer it is not noticible due to less change in temperature. In the winter season it is more noticible.

When the warm, moist wind is passing over the mountain as it goes uphill the they expand and cooldown and as a result rain and formatioin of clouds can be observed. once these winds reach the lee side it starts to descend an it gets warmer. For every 100m of descend the temperature of the wind increases by 1 degree of Celcius. These Chinook winds can reach speed of upto 120km/h or 75mph (according to wikipedia). There might be temperature changes upto 20 degrees Celcius in hours. The rise in temperature is called Dry adiabatic rate.

Presence of a Mountain Range is a basic requirement. Therefore these winds are seen near mountain ranges such as Rocky mountains in Canada, Montana in America, New Zealand and Germany.
Fun fact : In New Zealand these similar winds are called Canterbury Northwesters.

Windward is simply the direction of the wind is flowing which is upwards towards the crest of the mountain.
Leeward is the direction downward from the crest of the mountain

As you know, Wind is a result flow of gases from one place to another. When the wind  flows from one place to another it come across some obstacles. For example: trees, rocks and Mountains etc.
There is special phenomena that occur when the wind travels over a mountain.
This mysterious phenomena gives birth to the CHINOOK WINDS.

By definition "It is a strong wind that becomes ward and dry when it's rapidly descending the lee side of the mountain."

The mountain ranges of British Columbia, culminating in the Continental Divide between B.C. and Alberta, force wet Pacific air masses to rise and, in doing so, release moisture. By the time the air...

Yes it is a type of wind.... but this is a special type of local wind.

What is special about this wind?

Is it important that we know about Chinook wind?

Where do they occur?

What is the science behind these misterious winds?
