Both types of systems move in the same direction depending on where you live. So these types of systems move along with the weather.

Do high pressure systems move clockwise or counterclockwise?

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.


Explain how air moves differently in low and high pressure systems?

High Pressure Systems-Move Clockwise -Move downward -Move outward Low pressure systems- Move counter clockwise -Move inward -Move upward


Which direction does the wind blow in a low and a high pressure system?

It would blow from the mass of high pressure to the mass of low pressure.Answer 2Looking down from a satellite, the northern hemisphere high pressure systems move in a clockwise direction and anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere.Low pressure systems are the reverse of these, IE clockwise in the southern hemisphere and anticlockwise in the northern hemisphere.


3 characteristics of a high pressure system?

In a high pressure system, air is sinking. Air spirals outwards in an anticlockwise direction. In a high pressure system, sinking air becomes warm and stable. High pressure systems usually cover a greater area than low pressure systems and move slower. If located over land, high pressure systems are usually cloud-free.


How air moves differently in low and high pressure systems?

a high pressure system moves clockwise, while a low one moves counter clockwise. high pressure systems move down and out, and low pressure systems move in and up.


Explain how air moves differently in low-pressure and high-pressure systems?

a high pressure system moves clockwise, while a low one moves counter clockwise. high pressure systems move down and out, and low pressure systems move in and up.


Which direction does wind move?

Roughly from high pressure toward low pressure.


What are the characteristics of a low pressure system?

In a low pressure system, air is rising. Air spirals inwards in a clockwise direction. In a low pressure system, rising air cools and clouds begin to form. Low pressure systems usually cover a smaller area than high pressure systems and move faster. Low pressure systems are associated with high precipitation.


How air moves differently in low- and high-pressure system?

a high pressure system moves clockwise, while a low one moves counter clockwise. high pressure systems move down and out, and low pressure systems move in and up.


How does wind move between pressure systems?

from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure


What direction does the air in high pressure systems travel?

please improve Q. but if ur asking this, the air particles move in all directions, the more its under pressure, the more particles are moving.


What direction does weather move near a high- pressure area?

Away from it.
