In a low pressure system which direction do winds in the northern hemisphere blow?
In the northern hemisphere the circulation around a high is clockwise. In the southern hemisphere the circulation around a high is counter-clockwise.
Does a depression have clockwise winds?
If it is in the southern hemisphere yes. If it is in the northern hemisphere it will have counterclockwise winds.
Winds circulate around a tropical storm or hurricane in which direction in the Northern Hemisphere?
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE
What direction do surface winds circulate in a high pressure system in the northern hemisphere?
They circulate clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, and counter clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
In the Northern Hemisphere winds associated with a high-pressure system blow .?
In the northern hemisphere, winds associated with a high-pressure system blow clockwise towards the center.
What direction do winds associated with a low-pressure system blow in the northern hemisphere?
It moves to the right YOUR WELCOME :)
Describe the movement of air around cyclones and anticyclones in the northern and southern hemispheres?
The winds of a cyclone in the southern hemisphere moves in a clockwise direction, while the winds of a hurricane or typhoon, often called anti-cyclone, in the northern hemisphere, rotate in an anti-clockwise direction.
Which way do winds rotate in a tropical depression?
Winds in a tropical depression rotate counterclockwise if it is in the northern hemisphere and clockwise if it is in the southern hemisphere.
Can winds spin clockwise in the northern hemisphere?
Yes. Large scale high pressure systems in the northern hemisphere rotate clockwise. On rare occasions a tornado in the northern hemisphere will rotate clockwise as well, though the vast majority spin counterclockwise.
Are winds clockwise in high pressure?
Winds rotate clockwise about a high pressure system if it is in the northern hemisphere. If the system is in the southern nehmisphere the winds will rotate counterclockwise.
What direction do the winds blow out of an area of high pressure in the northern hemisphere?
CLOCKWISE!!
True or false winds in an anticyclones spin clockwise in the northern hemisphere?
True.
