.What is prevailing winds?

Prevailing winds Prevailing winds are winds that blow consistently in a given direction over a particular region on Earth. Due to factors such as uneven heating from the Sun and the Earth's rotation, these winds vary at different latitudes on Earth.

how they r formed?

A region's prevailing and dominant winds are the result of global patterns of movement in the Earth's atmosphere. In general, winds are predominantly easterly at low latitudes globally. In the mid-latitudes, westerly winds are dominant, and their strength is largely determined by the polar cyclone.

How do prevailing winds affect the weather?

Prevailing winds also determine the amount of rainfall that different regions get. In Southeastern Asia, these winds result in the formation of monsoons and deserts. The West coast of South and North America receives abundant rain during the winter due to these winds.

The dominant winds are the trends in direction of wind with the highest speed over a particular point on the Earth's surface.
