Is responsible for the curving path of the winds and the spiraling of hurricanes?

This is the Coriolis Effect.


What is the name for the cause of the spiraling of winds?

The name for the cause of the spiraling of winds is the Coriolis effect. This effect is a result of Earth's rotation and causes moving air or water to be deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere.


In northern hemisphere winds blow inward or outward?

In the northern hemisphere, winds generally blow outward from high pressure systems and inward toward low pressure systems. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which deflects air to the right in the northern hemisphere, causing it to circulate clockwise around high pressure systems and counterclockwise around low pressure systems.


How do the winds in a high pressure system blow?

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.


What is a huge mass of water pushed up by the spiraling wind of a hurricane?

A storm surge is a large mass of water that is pushed ashore by the strong winds of a hurricane, causing flooding in coastal areas.
