In the Northern Hemisphere, winds blowing out of a high-pressure system generally rotate in a clockwise direction. This pattern is known as anticyclonic flow. The air moves downward and outward from the center of the high-pressure system, resulting in a clockwise circulation around the area of high pressure.
In the Southern Hemisphere, the winds blowing out of a high-pressure system rotate in a counterclockwise direction.
This pattern is known as cyclonic flow.
The air moves downward and outward from the center of the high-pressure system, causing a counterclockwise circulation around the area of high pressure.
These wind patterns are a result of the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the rotation of the Earth.
The Coriolis effect causes moving air to be deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, resulting in the observed clockwise and counterclockwise wind patterns around high-pressure systems, respectively.
They will blow in opposite directions.
The Coriolis effect influences wind direction around the world in this way: in the Northern Hemisphere it curves winds to the right; in the Southern Hemisphere it curves them left. ... In these systems there is a balance between the Coriolis effect and the pressure gradient force and the winds flow in reverse.

The air blowing cell of southern and northern hemisphere is known as Ferrel cell.
The Coriolis effect influences wind direction around the world in this way: in the Northern Hemisphere it curves winds to the right; in the Southern Hemisphere it curves them left. ... In these systems there is a balance between the Coriolis effect and the pressure gradient force and the winds flow in reverse.
The coriolis effect caused by Earth's rotation results in winds getting deflected to the right (clockwise) in the northern hemisphere and the left (anticlockwise) in the southern hemisphere.
In the Southern Hemisphere, winds blowing from the north will appear to move east. This is due to the Coriolis Effect.
