Zephyr (noun) - a prevailing warm and gentle westerly breeze.

After the spring equinox, people look forward to warming temps and gentle zephyrs.

Zephyr. A gentle flapping of the bed sheets to allow a gentle breeze to escape..

I love the zephyrs we get on a cooler day, makes taking a walk so nice!

Zephys and chinooks, two of my favourite things.

Zephyr was the Greek god of the west wind. Well done the Greeks.
The Romans on the other hand actually have a god of the flatulent wind, he's called: Crepitus.
