Jet streams are primarily found in the upper atmosphere, specifically in the troposphere, at altitudes ranging from about 30,000 to 39,000 feet (9,000 to 12,000 meters). They are typically located near the boundaries of different air masses, such as between the polar and mid-latitude regions. Thus, while jet streams can be influenced by conditions near the poles and in middle latitudes, their main existence is in the upper atmosphere.
