Tramontana:
The Tramontana called in Italy, Croatia (Croatian Tramuntana), southern France and northern Spain (Catalan Tramuntana), the northern to northwestern, cold, often gusty wind flow. In Italy, this wind is particularly prevalent in the Liguria region. Particularly in winter, particularly strong in the valley estuaries, with consequent rapid temperature drops.
The wind can refresh both with stable cloud-free fair weather situation as well as with medium to strong cloud cover. In the latter case, weather conditions may deteriorate, followed by heavy gusts and rain. In Liguria, there is the Italian name Tramontana Scura, dark Tramontana '. Due to the location of the Ligurian coast between the Alps in the north and the Apennine arch in the south, there are always perturbations from the mountains. Therefore, in this Italian region, there is the peasant rule tramuntan-na scüa, ægua següa (Ligurian for 'dark tramontana, safe rain').
According to the relevant etymological dictionaries, the explanation is simple: trans, beyond ', montana, the mountains', meaning the wind that comes from across the mountain.
In addition, there are the following hypotheses for naming:
According to some statements, the name comes from the Latin direction within intra montes, as the wind comes from the "heart of the Alps" (north).
According to a local tradition, the name comes from the place Tramonti, which is located north of the sea region of Amalfi.
Finally, the traditional fixed point on the Italian wind rose Rosa dei Venti, ie the island of Zakynthos (Italian Zante) is mentioned in the Ionian Sea. There, the term "Tramontana" is used for the mountains of Albania and northern Greece, which are from the island's point of view in the north.
Incidentally, the name is often associated with the Italian tramonto 'Sunset'.
