Why do most weather systems in the United States move from west to east?

-Weather can move in any direction.

-In the United States, weather most often moves from east to west, because that is the direction the jet stream blows. The jet streams carry weather systems along with it.

-Hope it helps! xo

because mostly the wind is blowing from the west to the east so it pushes the storms and other weather cycles the same way
