Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Jet streams are bands of strong wind that generally blow from west to east all across the globe. These are relatively narrow bands of strong wind in the upper levels of the atmosphere.
Detailed explanation-2: -The jet stream flows high overhead and causes changes in the wind and pressure at that level. This affects things nearer the surface, such as areas of high and low pressure, and therefore helps shape the weather we see.
