how do jet streams affect the weather?
The jet stream affects the weather in a number of ways. The jet stream is a thin line of wind moving at a pretty fast pace. It usually forms along the west coast and makes its way eastward. The jet stream basically blows storms around. When there is a dip in the jet stream, this can cause colder air to dip down farther south. It’s basically like a huge front. Like a warm or cold front.
