EUROCLYDON, a stormy wind blowing from the north east or north-north-east in the eastern Mediterranean (Gr. elpos, east wind; KXi&wv, wave). Where the Authorized Version of the Bible (Acts xxvii. 14) mentions euroclydon, the Revised Version, taking the reading EUpaKUXwv, has euraquilo, or northeaster. The word is sometimes incorrectly used for the Bora (q.v.).
