		As the wind descends to lower levels on the leeward side of the mountains, the air heats as it comes under greater atmospheric pressure creating strong, gusty, warm and dry winds.
		Winds of this type are called "snow-eaters" for their ability to make snow vanish.
		Regionally, these winds are known as "zonda winds" in Argentina, "chinook winds" in the Rocky Mountains, "Diablo winds" in the San Francisco Bay Area, "Santa Ana winds" in Southern California, "sharav" or "hamsin" in Israel, "hamsin" in the Arabic middle east, and the "Nor'wester" in Christchurch, New Zealand and the Canterbury Plains.
