- Description:On October 28, 2023, in Mendoza, Argentina, @sthefi.guajardo recorded a striking video depicting the sheer force of the infamous "zonda" wind. Characterized by its intensity, aridity, and scorching temperatures, the zonda wind is a meteorological phenomenon that materializes under specific climatic conditions in regions adjacent to the Andes Mountains. In the footage, a tree succumbs to the unrelenting gales, collapsing onto the road, vividly illustrating the destructive potential of this natural occurrence. The zonda wind, a regional name for the foehn wind, is known to wreak havoc, including fires and various other natural disasters, particularly on the eastern slopes of the Andes in Argentina.
