Weather moves west-to-east thanks to the jet stream, which is a high-altitude wind that moves west-to-east and generally steers our weather.

Weather patterns in the US and Canada too travel west to east because of prevailing winds in the atmosphere in the middle lattitudes blow from west to east and transport areas of high and low pressure, which cause the weather.

Prevailing winds move west to east due to the Earth's rotation.

Everyone who said that it's due to the Earth's rotation can take a bow, because that is precisely the correct answer.

due to the earth's rotation and the direction winds move depending on where you are on the globe.

Just might have something to do with which way the earth turns.
