Canberra Doctor
An easterly evening wind from the coast that when it does happen helps to cool Canberra down. Reaches Braidwood and Bungendore more often. Name borrowed from the Fremantle Doctor: Hey, here's the Canberra Doctor. Let's open some windows and cool the house.
Contributor's comments: Never heard of this term! Must be Canberra specific. In Bungendore, the phenomenon is known as 'the easterly'.
