This strong wind band is a direct consequence of Earth’s rotation and the strong temperature differences between polar and moderate latitudes.
Sounds like something global warming can make worse.
Isn’t the northern hemisphere jet stream struggling due to decreasing temperature differences, since the poles are warming faster? Which then causes weather to change less, making things more extreme?
