    Jet streams form where warm and cold air masses meet in the atmosphere and move at around 110 miles per hour on average. However, large temperature differences between warm and cool air masses can cause jet streams to accelerate to speeds over 250 miles per hour. Jet streams are fast moving air currents in the upper levels of the atmosphere.

    Earth’s Weather

    Section 2
    Jet streams form when
    warm air masses meet cold
    air masses in the
    atmosphere. ... On average,
    jet streams move at about
    110 miles per hour. But
    dramatic temperature
    differences between the
    warm and cool air masses
    can cause jet streams to
    move at much higher speeds
    — 250 miles per hour or
    faster.
