Definition of chergui

Chergui: a hot dry wind from the Sahara which turns a normally mild oceanfront city into a desert. 
  Also, the annual reminder that I have yet to master temperatures in Celsius.  37 didn't sound bad until I realized that is 98 Fahrenheit. And the 42 degrees Celsius a little further inland? A whopping 107.
