And if you really notice, your wind in most regions usually comes from about the same direction anyhow. It's known as prevailing winds, and it how sailors managed to get anywhere they were going. Basically, towards the equator winds blow to the west, and at about the 30 degree mark away from the equator the winds blow towards the east (towards northeast, often in the north, and southeast in the south).
