There is a polar and subtropical jet in each hemisphere.
Jetstreams are fast-flowing narrow air currents found in the atmosphere. They move from west to east due to the Earth's rotation and temperature differences between air masses. Jetstreams can greatly impact weather patterns and the movement of aircraft.

Jetstreams can influence the movement and behavior of air masses by steering them along their path. The strong winds of jetstreams can cause air masses to be pushed or pulled in certain directions, affecting their speed and intensity. Jetstreams can also help to mix and create boundaries between different air masses, which can lead to the development of weather systems like storms or high-pressure systems.

In most cases that is planned to find optimum 'jetstreams' headed in the right direction.
Not D - jetstreams And its not A. frontal systems. its hadley cells :)-anna
Only subtropical high pressure is affected by coriolis force whereas upper air winds (jetstreams) are not affected.
I got my jetstreams 2 months ago give or take a day and they are amazing! This is my first time on pointe, and they fitted me with gms, and other Bloch styles...but jetstreams were the best for me. They don't come with the little white pillow in the bottom of the box, but that is ok. I don't use any padding inside and it doesn't hurt too bad. I broke them in quite easily (using a door) and they are great so far! Good luck :)
Yes. Airlines sometimes change their flight planned routes to take advantage of the jet stream when flying East, and avoid the jet stream when flying West.
Local winds: Heating of land/ocean, causing rising and falling air. Global winds: The Coriolis effect: Rotation of the Earth causes movement of air.Also jetstreams in the Stratosphere create wind. Pretty sure those are from the Coriolis effect though.

Jet streams are quickly moving winds that flow in the upper troposphere. They generally flow from west to east, but their speed and direction can vary. Jet streams have a significant impact on weather patterns and can affect the movement of weather systems.
