Which statement best describes local winds? they move over short distances. they curve due to the coriolis effect. they flow steadily from different directions. they blow from the poles toward the equator.

The correct answer is - They move over short distances.

The local winds do not have the same patters of movement as the global wind patters. They depend mostly on the local conditions, and they are only present over short distances.

In general, the local winds are found alongside the rivers, or between the valleys and the mountains that sharply rise above them. The ones that move alongside the rivers are having their starting point at the spring of the river, and they stop at the end of the river, which usually is not a very long distance. The ones that are between the valleys and mountains travel only for few km, practically just getting downwards from the mountain to the valley in the morning, and then move from the valley back to the mountain during the day.

They move over short distances.
