Upper air winds generally parallel the isobars, the result of the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis effect balancing one another. However, near Earth's surface, friction slows thewinds. Since the strength of the Coriolis effect is proportional to thewind speed, the Coriolis effect is diminished.
