An anticyclonic storm is a storm with a high-pressure center, in which winds flow in the direction opposite to that of the flow above a region of low pressure. [2] Unlike a cyclonic storm , anticyclonic storms are typically associated with fair weather and stable atmospheric conditions.
The term cyclone was coined by Henry Piddington of the British East India Company to describe the devastating storm of December 1789 in Coringa, India. [5] A cyclone forms around a low-pressure area. Anticyclone , the term for the kind of weather around a high-pressure area, was coined in 1877 by Francis Galton .
Occasionally anticyclonic tornadoes occur as an anticyclonic companion (mesoanticyclone) to a mesocyclone within a single storm. Anticyclonic tornadoes can occur as the primary tornado with a mesocyclone and under a rotating wall cloud. Also, anticyclonic supercells (with mesoanticyclone), which usually are storms that split and move to the ...
The largest anticyclonic storm (~16,000 km) in our solar system, little is known about its internal depth and structure. [40] Visible imaging and cloud-tracking from in-situ observation determined the velocity and vorticity of the GRS, which is located in a thin anticyclonic ring at 70–85% of the radius and is located along Jupiter's fastest ...
Meanwhile, this anticyclonic #tornado southeast of Loveland, Oklahoma has been ongoing for 20+ minutes with a VROT near 70 knots - certainly one of the most impressive anticyclonic tornadoes in ...
It was a mostly sunny day in Florence, Alabama, and a youth baseball league was outside practicing when a tornadolike whirlwind seemed to appear out of nowhere, sweeping across the infield as if ...
The storm did not appear to be severe and thunderstorm tops were measured to only be 26,000 feet (7,900 m), and a weak bow echo was observed by a radar in Neenah. Only a few minutes after midnight (local time), while the storm was weakening, the tornado touched down on the north side of West Bend, around the intersection of Jefferson Street and ...
The phenomenon which causes fog and grey clouds is called ‘anticyclonic gloom’, the forecaster said
