If you are at the equator directly underneath the Moon, you can choose whether to look at it right way up or wrong way up.Mark Wadsworthhttp://markwadsworth.blogspot.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-73908665460374473182013-11-08T08:51:05.350+00:002013-11-08T08:51:05.350+00:00@M The just missing low pressure areas is the most...@M The just missing low pressure areas is the most (only)coherent explanation of why hurricanes are anti clockwise I've read: I buy it and have already internalised it as an explanation. Still worried by the Moon being upside down in Australia mind you. Does it appear to flip as soon as you cross the Equator?

It illustrates why the wind would go from the south and the north to to half way between equator and pole. I'm not sure about the first five diagrams.<br />paulc156 gave a good explanation in the comments on the earlier post about hurricanes 1 Nov.Dinerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14632385731642361211noreply@blogger.com
