Best Answer

Breezes in valleys are formed because as the air warms during the day it rises along the slopes of the hills and mountains. As the warm air rises, cooler air is drawn in behind it causing a breeze.

Valley breezes forms through the process of convection. During the day, the sun rapidly heats up the air around a valley, which causes the air to rise, and create a warm, upslope wind. At night, the process is reversed.

Cumulus clouds that appear above isolated mountain peaks are often the result of a valley breeze. A valley breeze would develop its maximum strength in the early afternoon.
