... in the Northern Hemisphere. A severe low in the northern hemisphere produces winds that are called a Hurricane (USA) or Typhoon (Japan/coast of China).
Winds flow clockwise around a low pressure area in the Southern Hemisphere. A severe low in the northern hemisphere produces winds that are called a Cyclone.

Does wind always blow from high pressure to low pressure?
Yes, winds always blow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
Will wind always blow to the high areas of high pressure?
No. Wind blows away from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
Wind blows out of low pressure areas?
No, it blows into low pressure areas. Air moves from areas of high pressure to low pressure.
Does the wind move from high pressure area towards low pressure area?
Yes, it does move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. If it didn't we would have no such thing as wind.
Which direction will the wind blow if high pressure is in the west and low in the east?
Ignoring the coriolis effect, winds blow form high to low, therefore the wind would blow from west to east, it would be a westerly wind.
Does wind always blow from high pressure to low pressure?
Yes, winds always blow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
Will wind always blow to the high areas of high pressure?
No. Wind blows away from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
What direction does the wind blow?
A southeast wind is from the southeast toward the northwest.
Which direction does the wind blow in relationship to pressure differences Why?
Wind blows from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas. It does this simply because nature is trying to restore a balance between the different pressure areas.
From what pressure to what pressure does the global wind go?
Wind is created by air pressure, there's a law in meteorology, winds will usually blow from high pressure areas to low pressure areas. That's what this question would be asking for.
Do wind blow from high pressure to low pressure?
Yes.
Wind blows out of low pressure areas?
No, it blows into low pressure areas. Air moves from areas of high pressure to low pressure.
Does the wind usually move from areas of low pressure two areas of high pressure?
Nope... wind always flows from high-pressure areas to low.
How does wind move between pressure systems?
from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure
Does the wind move from high pressure area towards low pressure area?
Yes, it does move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. If it didn't we would have no such thing as wind.
What is the movement of air from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas?
density
How do high and low pressures create wind?
Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure (in order to equalise the pressure). When air moves, it is called wind.
