Geographical cyclone and anticyclone

1, the central airflow of cyclone rises (because the center is low pressure, the surrounding airflow moves towards the center, forcing the central airflow to rise); However, the airflow in the center of the anticyclone sinks (due to the formation of high pressure in the center, the airflow flows from the center to the surrounding areas).

2. If there is a lot of water vapor in the air, there will be rainy weather in the cyclone-controlled area (because the cyclone center is an updraft, the temperature of the airflow will decrease with the increase of height, the water vapor will saturate and condense to form clouds, and precipitation will form when conditions are ripe).

3. The sunny weather under the control of anticyclone is because the central airflow sinks, and the airflow is not easy to condense during the sinking process, so no precipitation will be formed.
