Circular movement of air is an atmospheric disturbance, which is the universal signature of the dynamics that characterize storms; especially, the larger systems such as hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, tornadoes, even down to the smaller thunderstorms (which carry the potential to turn into the more serious variety).

All of these storms are basically the same in formation and function. The names given to them depend upon intensity (energy) and/or global location.

A circular current of air is called a vortex. This phenomenon can be found in various forms such as whirlpools in water, tornadoes in the atmosphere, and dust devils on land.
