Answer: False

Explanation:

Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from.  Hence, a wind that "blows towards the east", logically should come from the west and is called a "west wind".

In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the Westerlies, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.

Therefore, the statement is false.
