morning breeze

Early daylight draft

A morning breeze is a light, gentle wind occurring in the early hours of the day.

The phrase often carries pleasant connotations—freshness, coolness before the heat sets in: We drank our coffee on the porch, enjoying the morning breeze.

In coastal areas, morning breezes typically blow from land toward sea as temperatures shift.
