Show transcript
High pressure systems, when air is sinking, are called anticyclones. Anticyclones are characterised by dry, stable weather. Anticyclones have very gentle winds shown by widely spaced isobars on a weather map. Anticyclones can bring summer heatwaves and very cold conditions in winter.
