Feeling silly here: just watched a really interesting video on Jupiter's
Great Red Spot: an ongoing cyclone on Jupiter's Southern Hemisphere, and
can't find it anymore. NASA just published what they're finding about it.
In all the excitement, finally got clear in my own mind what the difference
is between a cyclone and an anti-cyclone. A cyclone evacuates heat; so a
hurricane is a cyclone. In the Northen Hemisphere, it runs in a counter-clockwise
direction and just looks anti-cyclonic!!! Fancy that!
