Föhn wind, also known as foehn wind, is a warm, dry wind that occurs on the leeward side of mountains, typically in the Alps and other mountainous regions. It forms when moist air ascends the windward side, cools, and loses moisture as precipitation, then descends down the leeward side, warming adiabatically. This process can lead to significant temperature increases and lower humidity levels in the affected areas. Föhn winds can also cause rapid weather changes and are associated with various phenomena, including increased fire risk and health effects like headaches.
