Are you making a glancing reference to coriolis force, LB? 😉

After many years of attempting, often not successfully, to get to grips with the darker corners of aviation meteorolgy theory, both in military and civilian aviation careers, I am left with the impression that coriolis is actually a French word that translates loosely as ... [cough] ... bovine ordure. 😂

I have always been left cold by the explanations given for the effect of coriolis force on climatology, and am content to leave the subject there. 🤣

LB, no offence intended, truly, just owning up to my personal limitation in that field of science. 😉
