  "term": "Foehn phase",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A period characterized by warm, dry, and gusty winds descending the lee side of a mountain range, resulting from the adiabatic warming of air that has lost moisture on the windward side.

It can lead to rapid snowmelt and increased fire danger.",
