In what direction did the tropical cyclone move?
Tornadoes in the Midwest can move in any direction, but generally travel northeast.
Comets move
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
Comets actually move quite rapidly in absolute terms, but since they're generally so far away, they appear to change position only very slowly. (Far too slowly to actually see them move; they may take days to move a noticeable amount.)
Planets in our solar system typically orbit the Sun in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from above the solar system. This is known as prograde motion. However, some objects, such as comets and moons, may have retrograde orbits, moving in a clockwise direction.
Generally no. Comets do though.
In the Northern Hemisphere, ocean currents generally move in a clockwise direction, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they move in an anti-clockwise direction. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the Earth's rotation and influences the direction of moving objects.
The orbits of comets are much more irregular than those of planets. Probably the majority do orbit in the same direction, but it's not a sure thing.
Not necessarily. Comets can rotate in either direction on their axis, some rotate counterclockwise while others rotate clockwise. The direction of rotation is determined by various factors such as the direction the comet formed or collisions it may have experienced.

A tornado can move in any direction, but most move generally east or northeast.
