Local winds, such as sea breezes and mountain winds, are not planetary winds. These winds are driven by local temperature and pressure differences rather than the global atmospheric circulation patterns that produce the planetary winds.
The Coriolis Effect
South winds come from the south, or in other words, they blow in a direction from south to north.
In Egypt, the prevailing winds typically blow from the north to the northeast. These winds are known as the "northerly winds" or "khamsin," and they are warm and dry, often bringing sand and dust from the desert. During different seasons, winds from other directions can also affect the country's climate and weather patterns.

Planetary winds are any winds that occur because of solar radiation. They are in direct correlation to the rotation of the earth. Planetary winds do not blow directly north or south.

No, southerly winds come from the south and blow towards the north.

Surface winds at the North Pole generally move from the south towards the north, forming the Polar Easterlies. These winds are a result of the temperature difference between the cold polar regions and the warmer mid-latitudes.
