The correct answer is:

✅ Differences in air pressure

Wind is caused by air moving from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas, driven by:

Pressure Gradient Force: Air flows from high → low pressure (like a balloon deflating).

Coriolis Effect: Earth’s rotation twists wind direction (right in the N. Hemisphere, left in the S.).

Friction: Surface terrain slows winds near the ground.

❌ Water pressure: Affects ocean currents, not wind.

❌ Humidity: Influences air density but doesn’t directly cause wind.

Fun Fact: The strongest winds (non-tornadic) hit 231 mph on Mount Washington (1934)! 🌬️🏔️

Bonus: Wind turbines harness this pressure-driven motion for clean energy! 💨⚡
