Hey guys,

Just came across this question:

Where are easterly and westerly jets found?
a. Northern hemisphere only.
b. Southern hemisphere only.
c.Northern and southern hemisphere.
d. There are no easterly jets.

The correct answer is a, but I can't seem to find anything to confirm this. Supposedly easterly jets only occur in the northern hemisphere and somewhat rarely(?) at that. I haven't however been able to locate any text stating that this is the fact. I have on the other hand found some indications that easterly jets do in fact occur in the southern hemisphere. Anyone able to shed some light?
