There it is the Foehn," hated and feared because it can set off avalanches and floods. In both regions, and in many others : where it occurs under different names, it is a wind spil ling over a mountain range and leys and plains beyond, Authority for these observa tions . about the Chinook or Foehn, or in Argentina the Zon da, is R.
