(Meteorology) Winds spiraling outward from a high-pressure center; circling clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the southern.
area of high atmospheric pressure, from which winds flow outward in a clockwise direction in N hemisphere.
Area of high atmospheric pressure caused by descending air, which becomes warm and dry. Winds radiate from a calm center, taking a clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere and an counterclockwise direction in the southern hemisphere. Anticyclones are characterized by clear weather and the absence of rain and violent winds. In summer they bring hot, sunny days and in winter they bring fine, frosty spells, although fog and low cloud are not uncommon in the UK. Blocking anticyclones, which prevent the normal air circulation of an area, can cause summer droughts and severe winters.
