Highs
In weather systems, a center of low pressure is called a depression in generic terms. More specific terms include cyclone, anticyclone, hurricane, typhoon and tornado, which are used to describe particular weather systems associated with low pressure centers.
Tornadoes are always part of a low pressure system and do not form in high pressure.
High pressure brings clear weather and low pressure brings precipitous weather. (rain, snow, hail, sleet, etc.)
Decreasing pressure indicates a change in weather
The weather changes in relation to the air pressure. Air molecules always travel towards low pressure where there is less force acting on them. This has an effect on the weather. Generally, high pressure means good weather and low pressure means bad weather. Barometers measure the pressure, often in Hectopascals.

Light windsWidely-spaced isobars indicate low wind speeds.

Isobars are lines on a weather map that connect points of equal atmospheric pressure. The spacing and arrangement of isobars can indicate the location and strength of pressure systems, such as high-pressure centers (anticyclones) and low-pressure centers (cyclones). High pressure is typically associated with closely spaced isobars, while low pressure is associated with more widely spaced isobars.
Low pressure usually bring lousy weather. A barometer measures atmospheric pressure. High pressure is associated with good weather low pressure with bad weather
Decreasing pressure indicates stormy weather. Increasing Pressure indicates better weather.
Tornadoes are always part of a low pressure system and do not form in high pressure.
They both have rotating winds. Other than that they are completely different. Anticyclones are large-scale high-pressure systems that bring calm, clear weather. Tornadoes are small centers of low pressure with extremely violent winds.
A Low Pressure System allows clouds to form. It is possible that the clouds can stick around for several days in this type of system.
A weather disturbance is an interruption of settled and peaceful weather. Some examples are cyclones and tornadoes, thunderstorms, blizzards, and hurricanes.
High pressure brings clear weather and low pressure brings precipitous weather. (rain, snow, hail, sleet, etc.)
low pressure weather is cold fronts that move NW.
