    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Foehn is a local wind of Switzerland. A föhn or foehn is a type of dry, warm, down-slope wind that occurs in the lee of a mountain range. Central Europe enjoys a warmer climate due to the Föhn, as moist winds off the Mediterranean Sea blow over the Alps.
