Absolutely amazing explanation 🥰🥰

Im confused.. when you say the statospher0e winds flow in an easterly direction at 0:27 but the arrows are pointing west and vica versa for the opposite! Am I being stupid?

[@davidappell3105]

I was confused by that too.

[@sroc524]

When using the term “easterly” wind flow it means winds come FROM the east and move TO the west and visa versa for westerly. Once you add the suffix -erly to east, west, north, or south it means the direction from which it originated from not the direction it is headed. Hope that clears things up.
