Where the the wind come from?

Question

wind currents?

Answer 1

Air in motion is called wind.Usually the wind starts moving towards a low pressure area from a high pressure area.As the winds converge at the low pressure area from the sorrounding area,they are forced to rise.As they rise,they become colder and sinks usually over a high pressure area.So there is a reverse flow at higher levels completing the cycle.So,there is a circulation consisting of a wind flow from higher to lower pressure areas at surface level and corresponding reverse flow at higher levels.This is how a wind circulation is created causing the windflow.There are three such global circulations from the Equator towards the poles as four alternate low and high pressure belts exist due to differential heating of the surface by the sun.

Answer 2

Actually it's the other way around. Winds generally blow from high pressure areas to low pressure areas (though not directly from high to low due to other physical effects). It's nature's way of trying to balance things out by moving from areas of excess to areas of deficit.

Answer 3

Wind is just air moving from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.


I wrote that too quick...

Answer 4

The rotation of the earth.

Additionally the Highs and Lows help, but the earth's rotation is the main event.

Answer 5

from air!!!!!
