East to west on a normal year, and west to east on el niño years
What winds blow all year round in thecaribbean?
The Caribbean has a tropical climate with northeast trade winds. There are no extremes in temperature. Winters are warm and sunny and summers are hot.
How might atmospheric pressure over the pacific ocean affect how the trade winds blow?
In a normal year the weak winds (trade winds) will switch direction because the strong winds (the atmospheric pressure) is strong enough to push the trade winds up and to turn them around.
Which wind change direction two times in a year?
mansoon winds
Is mount Whitney snow covered year round?
Not year round but for the better part of the year.
What are primary winds?
The winds which blow permanently in one direction throughout the year are primary winds.
Distinguish between surface winds and upper atmosphere winds?
Surface winds blow along the surface of the earth.Sometimes they blow in the same direction all year around .Sometimes they blow mainly in one direction for other part of the year.For e.g the monsoons in the sub-continent. In other places the winds are likely to blow in different direction from day to day.Winds speeds can vary from very slow to 100 km pr/hr. Upper atmosphere winds blow at about 10,000 meters above the surface of the earth. They are caused by the rotation of the earth and blow steadily in the same direction all year round.They can reach up to speed 350 km to 450 km/hr.They are referred to as the jet stream.

What winds blow all year round in thecaribbean?
The Caribbean has a tropical climate with northeast trade winds. There are no extremes in temperature. Winters are warm and sunny and summers are hot.
What causes planetary winds?
Due to unequal distribution of pressure winds blow in perticular direction throughout the year and are reflected due to axial rotation of the earth.This is how planetory wind originates.
How might atmospheric pressure over the pacific ocean affect how the trade winds blow?
In a normal year the weak winds (trade winds) will switch direction because the strong winds (the atmospheric pressure) is strong enough to push the trade winds up and to turn them around.
What seasonal winds change direction twice a year bringing rain to India?

The upper few hundred meters of water that move like rivers in the ocean.
What causes planetary wind belts?
