Turbulence is caused by air currents moving along relatively flat plains, then hitting the Sharp incline of a mountain and being forced up and over it. This creates a sudden upthrust near mountains that continues for some considerable distance above the mountain before falling again on the other side. Depending on the direction of the wind, one side will have a large upwards air current, the other a large downwards air current.
