Chinooks are warm, dry winds that occur on the leeward side of mountain ranges. As moist air rises over the mountains, it cools and loses moisture as precipitation, resulting in drier air descending the other side. This descending air compresses and warms, leading to significantly higher temperatures compared to the surrounding areas. The process is known as orographic lifting and is particularly noticeable in the Rocky Mountains.
