favonian
favonian - adj., of or relating to the west wind; mild, benign.
Southern Arizona locals get to laugh at the association. (Our hot, dry prevailing summer wind -- "dragon weather" -- is out of the west/northwest.) From Latin Favonius, the personification of the west wind, from favere, to favor, with possible influence from fovere, to warm.
