anticycloneStorm Storm, n.
Anticyclonic storm (Meteor.), a storm characterized by a
central area of high atmospheric pressure, and having a
system of winds blowing spirally outward in a direction
contrary to that cyclonic storms. It is attended by low
temperature, dry air, infrequent precipitation, and often
by clear sky. Called also high-area storm,
anticyclone. When attended by high winds, snow, and
freezing temperatures such storms have various local
names, as blizzard, wet norther, purga, buran,
etc.

1. (Meteor.) In general, a condition of the atmosphere
characterized by a central area of pressure much lower
than that of surrounding areas, and a system of winds
blowing inward and around (clockwise in the southern
hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the northern); --
called also a low-area storm. It is attended by high
temperature, moist air, abundant precipitation, and
clouded sky. The term includes the hurricane, typhoon, and
tropical storms; it should not be applied to the moderate
disturbances attending ordinary areas of low pressure nor
to tornadoes, waterspouts, or ``twisters,' in which the
vertical motion is more important than the horizontal.

pressure, is called an anticyclone.
