The air is then forced down the mountain slopes out towards the Pacific coast; the air mass is further heated by compression as it drops in altitude before reaching the Los Angeles Basin western San Diego County and Tijuana (Baja California) at typical speeds of 35 knots. The Southern California coastal region gets some of its hottest weather of the year during autumn while Santa Ana winds are blowing. During Santa Ana conditions it is typically hotter along the coast than in the deserts and the humidity plummets to less than 15%.

Is it Santa Ana winds or Santana winds it is your belief that they originally were called Santana winds devil winds Satan winds then when Disneyland opened in 1959 near the city of Santa Ana ca people?
Your belief is wrong. The phrase "Santa Ana winds" is attested in newspapers LONG before "Santana winds" was; Santa Ana is the original version, and "Santana" is a later corruption of the term.Also, "Santana" does not mean "devil" ... in fact it's more or less the opposite. "Santa Ana" means "Saint Anne", and in Spanish vowels which occur together like that are elided, so instead of pronouncing "Santa Ana" as is done in English ... "san-taa-na" ... it's just "san-ta-na".The winds are probably named for the Santa Ana canyon, one of the locations where they are particularly strong.
