fog wind

The humid east wind that crosses the divide of the Andes east of Lake Titicaca and descends on the west in violent squalls; probably the same as puelche. Owing to the adiabatic heating of the descending air, the clouds rapidly disintegrate, leaving a sharply defined cloud wall, similar to the foehn wall.
