This study investigates the skill of the Consortium for Small‐scale Modeling (COSMO) model (v5.7) at 1.1 km horizontal grid size in simulating the near‐surface foehn properties and evolution for five south foehn events and a five‐year‐long climatology. A significant near‐surface cold bias is found during foehn, with an average bias of
K in the Rhine Valley in the five foehn cases and
