<p>24.215.177.116: </p> <hr /> <div>An '''anticyclonic storm''' is a weather [[storm]] where winds around the storm flow contrary to the direction dictated by the [[Coriolis effect]] about a [[low (atmospheric) | region of low pressure]]. In the northern hemisphere, anticyclonic storms involve clockwise wind flow; in the southern hemisphere, they involve anticlockwise (also called ''counterclockwise'') wind flow.<br /> <br /> Anticyclonic storms usually form around [[pressure system | high-pressure systems]]. These do not &quot;contradict&quot; the [[Coriolis effect]]; it predicts such anticyclonic flow about high-pressure regions. Anticyclonic storms, as high-pressure systems, usually accompany cold weather and are frequently a factor in large [[snowstorm]]s. <br /> <br /> Anticyclonic [[tornado]]s often occur; while tornados' [[vortex|vortices]] are low-pressure regions, this occurs because tornados occur on a scale small enough that the Coriolis effect is negligible.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Weather]]</div>
