Wind or gas in thermal? (3,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hot air

I believe this is a triple definition!

'wind' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'or' acts as a link.

'gas' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in' is a link.

'thermal?' is the third definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for hot air that I've seen before include "over the Sahara?" , "Gas" , "Bombast or balloon filler" , "Talking nonsense" , "is essential before the balloon goes up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
