Hi mate

Explanation:

The Jet Stream is a geostrophic wind blowing horizontally through the upper layers of the troposphere, generally from west to east, at an altitude of 20,000 - 50,000 feet. Jet Streams develop where air masses of differing temperatures meet. So, usually surface temperatures determine where the Jet Stream will form

Explanation:

Jet streams are relatively narrow bands of strong wind in the upper levels of the atmosphere. The winds blow from west to east in jet streams but the flow often shifts to the north and south. Jet streams follow the boundaries between hot and cold air. ... The earth's rotation is responsible for the jet stream as well.
