Is it true that jet streams are stronger in winter than in summer?
Yes. A meteorology reference states the polar jet is stronger in winter than summer because the polar-front temperature contrast is more intense then. Regional studies of the North Pacific jet and idealized model setups also report the jet most intense in winter.
