What is a name for a front that spirals counter clockwise in the nothern hemisphere?

A front that spirals counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere is called an occluded front.
Fronts don't flow counterclockwise, although a low does have a counterclockwise spin and frontal systems form off of a low.

How does air spiral in a tornado?
In most cases in the northern hemisphere, air spirals counter-clockwise around a tornado and sucks upward in the core center of the tornado. This is typically clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
Is high pressure slow wind or fast wind?
For reasons I won't explain lest you should lapse into a coma, there is a physical limitation as to how sharply clockwise-circulating winds [Northern Hemisphere] can curve around a high pressure systems. The radius of curvature (how tightly winds can spiral) is significantly limited. Thus you get a broad area of light winds.There is no such physical limitation as to how sharply the air can curve when spiraling counter-clockwise [Northern Hemisphere] toward a low pressure center, so strong winds blowing in spirals that have small radii of curvature can develop.
How do surface currents develop?
Deep ocean currents are caused by 3 things:change in temperaturechange in salinity by evaporationchange in salinity by freezingBecause colder water and saltier water are more dense, they sink, and the motion causes deep currents.
What causes tornadoes hurricanes cyclones?
Tornadoes form when thunderstorms take on rotation as a result of interactions with wind shear. This rotation can tighten and intensify to produce a tornado. Hurricanes develop when storm systems move out over warm ocean water, organize, and intensify. Cyclones are simply low pressure systems, they are generally simply areas of rising air that is warmer than its surroundings. Air spirals inward cyclonically, that is clockwise in the southern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. This is due to the Coriolis effect.
In a tornado the air spirals mostly vertically?
No, the rotation of a tornado is stronger than its updraft.

What direction do winds associated with a low-pressure system blow in the northern hemisphere?
It moves to the right YOUR WELCOME :)
Do sunflowers have the Fibonacci sequence?
The seeds in the head of a sunflower can be seen to form two spirals: one going clockwise and one going anticlockwise; the number of these spirals round the head are consecutive Fibonacci numbers (the number of clockwise spirals being the larger).
Is a cyclone a system of wind in which the wind blows spirally?
That is part of the definition. The description here could apply to both cyclones and anticyclones. A cyclones is a low-pressure wind systems in which wind spirals in a cyclonic direction: counterclockwise for systems in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. Cyclones generally bring stormy or rainy weather. An anticyclone is the opposite; it is a high-pressure system with winds that spiral clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. Anticyclones generally bring clear weather.

What happens when air rushes into a low pressure region in the northern hemisphere?
Spirals into a counterclockwise direction.

Why are you fascinated by spirals?
Why am i facinated by spirals? Don't you mean you are facinated with spirals cause you are a sad, socially rejected, friendzoned fragment of fridge magnet!
