Question 1
How are winds named?
Winds are given a person’s name in alphabetical order.
Winds are named by the person who discovers them. For example,
katabatic winds are named for Dr. Katabatic who discovered winds that
flow from mountains down into valleys during the night.
Winds are named based on the country that they originate.
Winds are named for the direction from which they come. Thus, a wind
coming from the west would be called a westerly wind.
