Jet Streaming Along the Polar Front The polar front and its associated jet stream have a major influence on the weather conditions surrounding it. Many storms form along the polar front in the vicinity of the jet stream's maximum winds. Because the jet stream is associated with the polar front, media weather maps often include the jet stream's position as a rough indicator of warm and cold air masses. meteorlogy • weather • jet stream • polar front • rossby waves
