What is cyclone? :
- When observed from above, a cyclone is a huge air mass rotating counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere around a powerful core of low atmospheric pressure (opposite to an anticyclone).
- Winds that spiral inward and revolve around a region of low pressure define cyclones.
- The biggest extratropical cyclones and polar vortex are the greatest low-pressure systems (the synoptic scale).
- The synoptic scale also includes warm-core cyclones like tropical and subtropical cyclones.
- Without a surface low, upper level cyclones can form and can pinch off from the tropical upper tropospheric trough in the Northern Hemisphere throughout the summer.
