The difference between westerly and easterly jet streams are as follows:

  1. During the winter season, the westerly jet stream is divided into two parts due to the physical obstruction of the Himalayas and Tibetan plateau. On the other hand, the easterly jet stream is the main factor in determining the summer months.
  2. They usually influence the weather of the north and north-western regions of India. Easterly jet stream influences the Northeastern Indian states as they receive rainfall.
  3. The westerly jet stream is extended up to the region of Nagpur Raipur latitudes. whereas easterly latitudes extend far to the north of Tibet.
  4. Easterly jet stream is less strong than the westerly jet stream.

These are a few differences between westerly and easterly jet streams.
