The old professor says: The reason for this lies in the pressure belts around the planet (such as the Equatorial Lo or Polar Hi) As the air moves from high pressure belts to low pressure belts it is deflected by the Coriolus Effect. This forms the prevailing wind belts...like the Prevailing Westerlies, or the Trade Winds, etc. Thus, an air mass caught in one of these belts will be swept along with the prevailing wind currents. Also, another player in this game are the jet streams. They often "herd" the air masses along and can accelerate them into other wind belts or keep them from moving north or south.
