Quelques vents

(le) mistral
(la) tramontane

Both are violent, cold winds blowing in the Southern regions of France, that every kid learns about by hearing about them on the daily Météo France weather forecast. But to this day I must say I can't really make the difference between the two, and Météo France's explanation doesn't really help, except that both winds seem heavily correlated. In any case, they both evoke the Mediterranean coast and its delights to me.
