A Cyclone is a large-scale circulation of winds around a central region of low atmospheric pressure, counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. Or A Very Furious Windstorm

A cyclone is NOT a tornado; do not get them confused. Tornadoes can last for merely minutes, cyclones last for days! A hurricane is a cyclone on the other hand. A cyclone is a low pressure system, and that means air rises (count. clockwise in northern hemisphere, clockwise is southern) and on the surface, it is low pressure.

a cyclone is a tornado that cannot touch the ground because the area level of pressure is too high. It is more like a hurricane spinning twice as fast.

A cyclone is when warm air rises from the sea and condenses into the clouds, massive amounts of heat are released. this mixture of heat and moisture is often a collection of thunderstorms, from which a tropical storm can develop

A cyclone is where low pressure winds meet high pressure winds and clash together, creating a front. If the winds are of different moisture levels, they will try to reach an equilibrium (they will stabilize). In the process they will create a spiraling formation known as a cyclone.

Bob is right cyclones are NOT tornadoes, they are totally different. Cyclones form on seas of 25.5 degrees or higher and have wing speeds of up to 240km.

A cyclone is an area of low pressure around which the winds flow counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. A developing cyclone is typically accompanied by a warm front pushing northward and a cold front pulling southward, marking the leading edges of air masses being wrapped around a center of low pressure , or the center of the cyclone. The counterclockwise winds associated with northern hemisphere midlatitude cyclones play a significant role in the movement air masses transporting warm moist air northward ahead of a low while dragging colder, drier air southward behind it.
