polar easterlies
No, southerly winds come from the south and blow towards the north.
The winds always blow from the south at the South Pole due to the rotation of the Earth and the Coriolis effect, which causes the winds to flow from high pressure to low pressure areas. This is known as the polar easterlies.
Polar easterlies are dry, cold prevailing winds that blow from the east. They emanate from the polar highs, areas of high pressure around the North and South Poles. Polar easterlies flow to low-pressure areas in sub-polar regions. Westerlies are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes.
The trade winds are located about 30 degrees north and south of the equator. They blow consistently in a westward direction in tropical regions, influencing global weather patterns and ocean currents.
The westerlies blow from west to east in the middle latitudes of both hemispheres, between 30 and 60 degrees latitude. They are responsible for weather patterns and movement of storms in these regions.

The Polar Easterlies are dry prevailing winds that blow from high pressure areas in the north and south poles. These winds are also called Polar Hadley cells.
The doldrums is an area near the Equator (or near the poles, but the Equatorial doldrums is more well known) where there are times of calm where no winds blow. It is not a wilderness area, though...
No, southerly winds come from the south and blow towards the north.
Because winds are named for where they come from, polar easterlies blow from the poles in the east out to the west.
Winds that blow from the north pole and south pole are called polar easterlies. They originate from the polar high-pressure areas and blow towards the lower pressure zones at around 60 degrees latitude.
Polar easterlies. They are cold, dry winds that blow from the polar high-pressure areas towards lower latitudes.
South winds come from the south, or in other words, they blow in a direction from south to north.
