A rare mist resulting from wind (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

airstream

'wind' is the definition.
(airstream is a kind of wind)

'a rare mist resulting from' is the wordplay.
'resulting from' is an anagram indicator.
'rare'+'mist'='raremist'
'raremist' with letters rearranged gives 'irstream'.
'a'+'irstream'='AIRSTREAM'

(Other definitions for airstream that I've seen before include "What might waft" , "Atmospheric flow" , "wash" , "Atmospheric current" , "Jet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
