foehn-like / föhn-like


Explanation:
föhn-like winds . These winds develope in the Alps and blow from south to north. When the descend from the higher areas into the )northern valleys, they not only gather strength but also warmth.
They can accordingly be a severe fire hazard. My home valley Glarus in Switzerland is one of those typically afflicted by the Föhn.
