Why do they TURN ???

Hi,

I have a bizarre question.

I live in the hills area, and often see commercial aircraft at cruise altitude flying in a North-South direction, then make a turn SOUTH-WEST. This was greatly noticeable the other day when there was alot of moisture and the contrails could be seen across the entire flight path.

Why are they turning when they do? and why would they not take a direct route ?

Anyone with info would be greatly appreciated. I can't sleep at night..

Cheers

Brett
