Definition of chinook
chinook
- an unseasonably and sudden, constant warm wind that blows from the west to the east through the cascade mountain passes (late winter to early spring).

Familiar to anyone living in the foothills of the eastern cascade mountains in Washington State and Oregon.
A chinook blew through yesterday and dried everything up!
