A high-pressure area, high, or anticyclone, is an area near the surface of a planet where the atmospheric pressure is greater than the pressure in the surrounding regions. Highs are middle-scale meteorological features that result from interplays between the relatively larger-scale dynamics of an entire planet's atmospheric circulation .
However as the anticyclone moves over the earth surface it may heat up locally, acquire water from the land or oceans or encounter warmer wet air. Local geography may cause a range of localised weather phenomena specific to anticyclones, while the interaction of the different air masses , which occurs at weather fronts , may cause a range of ...
Cold air damming, or CAD, is a meteorological phenomenon that involves a high-pressure system (anticyclone) accelerating equatorward east of a north-south oriented mountain range due to the formation of a barrier jet behind a cold front associated with the poleward portion of a split upper level trough. Initially, a high-pressure system moves ...

The Great Red spot on Jupiter is considered as an Anticyclone storm system. [1] Anticyclonic cloud system taken above the Pacific Ocean by the STS-41-B crew.. An anticyclonic storm is a storm with a high-pressure center, in which winds flow in the direction opposite to that of the flow above a region of low pressure. [2]
South Atlantic High on the right. South Atlantic High is a semipermanent pressure high centered at about 25°S, 15°W, in the Atlantic Ocean.It is also called the St. Helena High, Saint Helena island being the only land in the area.
