Energy or matter move from high potential to low potential.
This case the high pressure mean there is more air in its' volume so it expand toward those spot with lesser air than its' volume.
For example, low pressure front may due to the heat cause air volume to expand. The air then move up due to its' buoyancy and that cause the low pressure. The colder and denser air is then draft toward those low pressure front.

What is a stationary front an area of high or low pressure?
A stationary front would be associated with an area of low pressure (high pressure does not have fronts).
Is high pressure warm front or cold front?
warm front is low pressure , cold front high pressure . because it pushes down on the surface (because cold air sinks) it makes high 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.
Are hurricanes low pressure or high pressure?
Hurricanes are low pressure systems.
What kind of pressure is associated with thunder storms?
Low pressure system, very low! Low pressure=air coming inward=lifting of air=bad weather/instability...
Where is the low pressure service port in a 95 Dodge Stratus?
low pressure towards the evaporator ( towards the inside of car) and the high pressure is towards the condensor in front of the radiator
What is a stationary front an area of high or low pressure?
A stationary front would be associated with an area of low pressure (high pressure does not have fronts).
Does Air flows towards low pressure regions?
Air does generally flow from high pressure to low pressure.
Is high pressure warm front or cold front?
warm front is low pressure , cold front high pressure . because it pushes down on the surface (because cold air sinks) it makes high pressure .
How are the terms front and air mass different?
Air mass - refers to any area of high or low pressure. A front - is the point at which an area of high pressure meets an area 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.
If a cold front is present is a high pressure system present?
No, but a low pressure is.
Does wind moves rapidly toward a high pressure center?
No. Winds move away from a high pressure center and towards a low pressure center. You can think of it as the low pressure sucking the air in.
What does high pressure move towards?
Air always flows from High Pressure towards Low Pressure. Wind is caused by the pressure gradient difference. In a high pressure system, within the Northern Hemisphere, air flows clockwise, outwards and downwards; in a low pressure system (in the NH), air flows anti-clockwise, inwards and upwards.
Does are come together or move apart in an area of surface low pressure?
Air always flows towards areas of low pressure - and away from high pressure.
Is a warm front caused by high or low pressure systems?
YES
How are the air masses and fronts different?
Air mass - refers to any area of high or low pressure. A front - is the point at which an area of high pressure meets an area of low pressure.
