Answer:east

Step-by-step explanation:

Polar easterlies are dry, cold prevailing winds that blow from the east. They emanate from the polar highs, areas of high pressure around the North and South Poles. Polar easterlies flow to low-pressure areas in sub-polar regions. Westerlies are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes
