Winds rotate clockwise about a high pressure system if it is in the northern hemisphere. If the system is in the southern nehmisphere the winds will rotate counterclockwise.
In the northern hemisphere, winds associated with a high-pressure system blow clockwise towards the center.
Wind flows Cyclonically (counterclockwise) into a low pressure system. (Winds flow clockwise out of a high pressure system)... 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.
In zones where air ascends, the air is less dense than its surroundings and this creates a center of low pressure. Winds blow from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, and so the surface winds would tend to blow toward a low pressure center. In zones where air descends back to the surface, the air is more dense than its surroundings and this creates a center of high atmospheric pressure. Since winds blow from areas ofhigh pressureto areas oflow pressure, winds spiral outward away from the high pressure. The Coriolis Effect deflects air toward the right in the northern hemisphere and creates a general clockwise rotation around the high pressure center. In the southern hemisphere the effect is just the opposite, and winds circulate in a counterclockwise rotation about the high pressure center. Such winds circulating around a high pressure center are calledanticyclonic windsand around a low pressure area they are calledcyclonic winds.
Most weather systems in the temperate latitudes move from west to east. This makes the west side of a system the trailing side. In the northern hemisphere, high-pressure systems rotate clockwise, resulting in southerly winds on the west (trailing) side.
In the northern hemisphere wind blow around high-pressure systems in a clockwise direction. In the southern hemisphere, the wind blow is in the opposite (anticlockwise) direction.
In the northern hemisphere, winds associated with a high-pressure system blow clockwise towards the center.
CLOCKWISE!!
They Blow Clockwise
They Blow Clockwise
clockwise away from the high-pressure center
Air circulates clockwise around a high pressure system in the northern hemisphere, counter-clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
Typically the area between the systems gets high winds because of the differences in circulation such as a high pressure spins clockwise and low pressure system spins counter clockwise.
In the northern hemisphere, winds associated with a high-pressure system blow clockwise towards the center.
They circulate clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, and counter clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
In the northern hemisphere the circulation around a high is clockwise. In the southern hemisphere the circulation around a high is counter-clockwise.
It moves to the right YOUR WELCOME :)
High Pressure Areas has little to none winds at all, but to give you some idea, the air in the High Pressure Area literally flow outward due to high density air near the center and friction to the land. Unlike storms, High Pressure Are releases winds outward on a clockwise rotation. Comparing it to magnet, High Pressure Area winds flow to Low Pressure Areas. It's due to unlike densities of the air masses. High Pressure Area contains drier and cooler so it will flow to Low Pressure Area where warmer and more moist.
