And in my own personal opinion, And there will be more, more and more frequent jet streams/extreme jet streams or constant turbulences/severe turbulences in our earth's atmosphere.And it seemed to me that this will continue to get worse brought by climate change or global warming that leads to extreme calamities in our world.And this is bad news to those who are travelling by air specially and particularly those who are frequent fliers.
