The jet stream is a band of air about 6 to 9 miles above the earth and travels from about 120 to 250 miles per hour.. The jet stream influences weather because it separates warm and cold air and pushes weather systems around the earth.
One major influence is the tilt of earth's axis. This 23 degree tilt is enough to cause the difference between summer and winter weather.
The climate in UK is mild due to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The Gulf Stream is one of the strongest and most important ocean currents in the world.The Gulf Stream currents move warm water in the Atlantic Ocean from the Caribbean Sea northeast to northern Europe and the British Isles.The Gulf Stream brings warmth to the UK and north-west Europe and is the reason the UK has fairly mild winters.Without this steady stream of warmth, the British Isles winters are estimated to be more than 5C cooler, bringing the average December temperature in London to about 2C.
The Gulf Stream brings warm water from the Gulf of Mexico to the British Isles, helping to moderate their climate and keep temperatures relatively mild compared to other locations at similar latitudes. This ocean current also influences weather patterns, contributing to the wet and mild conditions often experienced in the region.
A stream bed is the bottom sediment layer of the stream channel which is constantly inundated with water. It is a saturated layer of sediment inhabitated by macroinvertibrates, algae, macrophytes, and microbes. The particle size of the stream bed material (fine clay vs large rock and boulders) is dependent on geologic region, size of the stream, and stream velocity. The stream bank is the adjacent sloping walls that confine the stream on either side. They are typically not wet except in times of high flows. Banks typically can grow more terrestrial vegetation such as reeds, grasses, and trees.

The jet stream is a band of air about 6 to 9 miles above the earth and travels from about 120 to 250 miles per hour.. The jet stream influences weather because it separates warm and cold air and pushes weather systems around the earth.
The jet stream regularly affects high altitude wind and low altitude weather.
It changes precipitation patterns, causes strong storms, and transfers warm and cold air.

· Jet stream
Weather in the U.S. comes mostly from the jet stream. The jet stream moves at higher altitudes, in a westward-to-eastward motion. So U.S. weather moves likewise.
jet stream
It flows across much of the United States.
Both tornadoes and the jet stream are weather patterns that involve strong winds, aside from that they are completely different.
When the jet stream moves south, it moves its associated weather front, which causes winds from the north.
Subtropical jet stream.
