Cyclones:
• Centers of low pressure with closed isobars
• Wind circulation is from outside towards central low pressure
• Inward flow due to pressure gradient force & Coriolis force
• Note: Anti-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere & Clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere
• Centers of low pressure with closed isobars
• Wind circulation is from outside towards central low pressure
• Inward flow due to pressure gradient force & Coriolis force
• Note: Anti-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere & Clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere
Formation of cyclones:
• Forms over warm tropical oceans
• Inward air flow due to pressure gradient
• Coriolis force deflects winds, causing circulation
• Rising warm, moist air leads to cloud formation
• Gains strength, becoming a tropical storm

Temperate Cyclones:
• Convergence of two air masses
• Low-pressure centers in mid-latitudes during winters
• Intensified and frequent during winters with a movement from west to east

Tropical Cyclones:
Form between 5 - 30 lat
Not formed near the equator due to the lack of Coriolis force
Destructive atmospheric systems with varying shapes and sizes
Consist of an eye, inner eyewall & outer eyewall
Move from east to west under the influence of trade winds

Anticyclones:
Centers of high pressure & closed isobars
Clockwise in the Northern Hem & anticlockwise in Southern Hem
Larger than temperate cyclones, covering extensive areas
Produce fairly uniform weather with clear & rainless conditions
This diagram will help you👇

Cyclone:
• Low-pressure center.
• Inward towards the central low.
• Counterclockwise in Northern Hemis
• Stormy conditions, rain
Anticyclone:
• High-pressure center
• Outward from the central high
• Clockwise in Northern Hemis
• Clear, stable conditions, minimal rain
• Low-pressure center.
• Inward towards the central low.
• Counterclockwise in Northern Hemis
• Stormy conditions, rain
Anticyclone:
• High-pressure center
• Outward from the central high
• Clockwise in Northern Hemis
• Clear, stable conditions, minimal rain
Why Cyclones Bay of Bengal >> Arabian Sea?
Shallow depth fosters heat transfer, crucial for cyclone formation
Surrounded by land on 3 sides, amplifying moisture & instability
Curved coastline intensifies wind speeds, enhancing cyclone potential
