How Does Air Move Near The Top Of A Cyclone??
Air always moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. Cyclonic flow is counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere.
areas of low pressure
Globally, low-pressure systems are most frequently located over the Tibetan Plateau and in the lee of the Rocky mountains. In Europe (particularly in the British Isles and Netherlands), recurring low-pressure weather systems are typically known as “low levels”.
How does air circulate within a cyclone?
In a cyclone the central air pressure is lower than that of the surrounding environment, and the flow of circulation is clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere and counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. Cyclones are also characterized by low-level convergence and ascending air within the system.
