Hi Eins
Santa Ana or Santana. I really don't care what you call it. The effect of a high pressure over the 4 corners area, Col., utah, etc. will cause a wind to blow in a clock wish direction. This wind will curve around to the south of Nav. and Arz. and pick up a little heat. As it comes close to the mountains it can't cross over so it goes around by the way of Snata Ana and right toward the L.A. basin, and out to sea--you see.
So the next time you look at a weather map you might see a hig over the 4 corners area it could very well lead to a Santa Ana condition. MAYBE!
That's All Folks
Bye
