I'm hoping that someone like Little Storm Cloud can answer this one.
I have a story idea that involves some people living in a mountain mining settlement getting caught in a dangerous windstorm. I'm not very smart when it comes to things of this nature, so any reliable, authoratative information on the title subject is welcome and appreciated.
These are my main questions: Is there a time or season when mountain winds are particularly strong? Is it possible to have a windstorm in a mountain range without rain, sleet, or snow? Would the wind be a downdraft blowing down the slope, or otherwise?
Please help!!! I have a good idea (for once,) and I need to know how these sorts of things work.
