Answer:

Low pressure systems (descending) produce unsettled weather, which may include clouds, high winds, and precipitation. Storms or hurricanes may form as the low pressure system intensifies. In the northern hemisphere, low pressure systems revolve in a cyclone, which is distinguished by counter-clockwise rotation (clockwise in the southern hemisphere).

High pressure systems (ascending) have stabilized, are usually larger than low pressure systems, and last for days or weeks. Lower humidity is frequently coupled with high pressure, which provides a comfort. However, if the thick air in a high becomes too warm, it might cause a drought.
