Mostly the prevailing winds are westerlies. That means they come out of the west. Temperature, bodies of water, mountains and other things can influence wind direction.
Weather patterns in the continental US generally move from west to east due to the prevailing westerly winds. However, weather systems can also move in other directions depending on various factors such as high and low pressure systems, jet streams, and local geographic features.

The direction of weather movement in the US is primarily based on the movement of weather systems driven by prevailing winds. In general, weather systems in the US move from west to east due to the prevailing westerly winds in the mid-latitudes. However, local topography and regional weather patterns can also influence the direction of weather movement.
