This strong wind is called the Mistral, and it comes from the north of France. There is a local saying: in the word "Ardèche", if you take away the "R," you are in "la dèche." This means you are in a very poor or miserable place. But really, we need the wind ( AIR) to enjoy the fresh air , the beautiful landscape, and the blue sky of my region. so No "R" = No "Air" In Ardèche Mistral means Sun .
