Over which part of the globe do the prevailing winds below west to east

1 answer

Prevailing winds that blow from west to east are primarily found in the mid-latitudes of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. These winds are known as the westerlies. In the Northern Hemisphere, they typically occur between 30° and 60° latitude, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they occur in a similar range of latitudes. The westerlies are significant in influencing weather patterns, ocean currents, and climatic conditions in these regions.
