próbaszéls

Próbaszéls is a Hungarian term that translates to "test wind" or "trial wind." It refers to a brief, often preliminary, period of windy weather that can occur at any time of year. These periods are not necessarily associated with a major weather system but can be caused by localized atmospheric conditions or passing low-pressure disturbances. The duration of próbaszéls can vary significantly, ranging from a few hours to a couple of days. While sometimes a precursor to more significant weather changes, it can also be an isolated event.

In agricultural contexts, próbaszéls can be a factor in crop monitoring. Farmers might observe such windy spells to assess potential damage to young plants or to note how drying conditions might affect soil moisture. Meteorologically, próbaszéls are of interest as they can provide insights into the immediate atmospheric dynamics of a region. They are typically characterized by a noticeable increase in wind speed and gusts, often accompanied by a change in cloud cover. The term is primarily used in informal weather discussions and by those who closely observe local weather patterns in Hungary.
