I despise Santa Ana Winds!
high heat & low
humidity, is a recipe for disaster!
Even in literature is documented,
and old Mexicans living in SoCal call it Diablo Wind,
the wind of the
devil!
"There was a desert wind blowing that night.
It was
one of those hot dry Santa Anas
that come down through the mountain
passes and
curl your hair and make your nerves jump and your skin itch.
On nights like that every booze party ends in a fight.
Meek little wives
feel the edge of the carving knife
and study their husbands' necks.
Anything can happen."
—Raymond Chandler, "Red Wind"
