Best answer

Jet – stream winds change according to the season. As the sun moves towards the southern direction, all the winds along with atmospheric belts move towards the south. According to this process, the flow of jet stream also moves to south. On moving towards the south, due to the location of Tibetan Plateau, jet stream winds are divided into two branches. Its northern branch moves to the north of Tibetan Plateau and the southern branch moves to the south of Tibetan Plateau.
