What different weather phenomena will cyclone and anticyclone bring?

Cyclone:

In the northern (southern) hemisphere, the horizontal airflow in the atmosphere is a large vortex rotating counterclockwise (clockwise), radiating from all sides to the center, counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. At the same height, the air pressure in the center of the cyclone is lower than that around it, which is also called low pressure. Cyclones are similar to circles or ellipses, and their sizes vary greatly. The vertical airflow of the cyclone is rising. During the rising process, the temperature dropped and it was rainy.

Anti-cyclone, in the northern hemisphere, the airflow in the anti-cyclone area rotates clockwise from the center to the outside, and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. In the weather map, the anticyclone is a high-pressure area where the isobar is closed and the pressure value decreases from the center to the outside, so it is also called high pressure.

The near-surface airflow of anticyclone radiates from the center to the periphery in the horizontal direction, and the air supplements from bottom to top in the vertical direction. In the process of sinking, the temperature rises, and the water vapor is not easy to condense, and the areas controlled by anticyclones are mostly sunny. In the vast areas of northern China, the "crisp autumn weather" that often appears in autumn is formed under the control of the anticyclone system.
