ghibli
A hot dust-bearing desert wind in Tripolitania (northwestern Libya), similar to the foehn. In Morocco, the analogous gibla is a hot dry wind from between southeast and south. It means “the direction in which one turns,” that is, the traditional direction of Mecca. See chili, khamsin, sirocco, suahili.
