Best Answer

For tropical storms, the Coriolis effect causes the rotation of the storm because of the rotational force of the Earth relative to the position on the storm. This force makes an equilibrium with the pressure gradient force caused by low-pressure in storms. In the Northern Hemisphere, this causes storms to rotate clock-wise; in the Souther Hemisphere, this causes storms to rotate counter-clockwise.
