The Red Spot.
The Great Red Spot (GRS) is a persistent anticyclonic storm, 22° south of Jupiter's equator; Earth observations establish a minimum storm lifetime of, variously, 182 years and possibly 347 years. The storm is large enough to be visible through Earth-based telescopes.
The GRS rotates counterclockwise, with a period of about six Earth days or 14 Jupiter days. Its dimensions are 24--40,000 km west-to-east and 12--14,000 km south-to-north. The spot is large enough to contain two or three planets the size of Earth. At the start of 2004, the Great Red Spot had approximately half the longitudinal extent it had a century ago, when it was 40,000 km in diameter. At the present rate of reduction it could potentially become circular by 2040, although this is unlikely because of the distortion effect of the neighboring jet streams. It is not known how long the spot will last, or whether the change is a result of normal fluctuations.

What else can I help you with?
Does Jupiter have storms?
Yes, Jupiter does have storms, most notably the Great Red Spot, a massive anticyclonic storm that has been raging for at least 400 years. Jupiter's atmosphere is constantly in motion, with high-speed winds and turbulent weather patterns creating numerous storms across the planet. These storms are fueled by the planet's rapid rotation and its immense size, which generate strong atmospheric dynamics.
What are the special features of Jupiter?
Jupiter is the largest of our solar system's planets and is a gas giant with long-lived atmospheric storms.
What are the hazards as in dangers in Jupiter?
the hazards on Jupiter would be the storms and the raging winds that just fly across Jupiter at a speed of 150m/s.
What surface feature do Jupiter and the sun have in common?
They are both gaseous, they both have spots, and they both have fierce surface "winds".
What kind of hazards are on Jupiter?
Jupiter has intense radiation belts composed of charged particles trapped in its magnetic field, which can be harmful to spacecraft and astronauts. It also has powerful storms, like the Great Red Spot, with winds reaching over 400 mph. Additionally, Jupiter's strong gravitational pull can act as a hazard for missions attempting to land on its moons.

Are there monsoons on Jupiter?

What are the huge storms or spots on neptune and Jupiter called?
The huge storm on Jupiter is called the Great Red Spot, which is a massive anticyclonic storm. The storms on Neptune are known as the Great Dark Spot and the smaller Dark Spots, which are large atmospheric disturbances in its dynamic atmosphere.
