    Explanation:

    Fair weather
    Anticyclones are in fact high pressure centres and are associated with rainless fair weather. Anticyclone is a region where the atmospheric pressure is high compared with that of adjacent areas, and that shows at least one closed Isobar. Mostly there is a series of closed concentric isobars, which are oval or circular in shape, resulting with the highest pressure at the centre. In the northern hemisphere the general wind circulation is clockwise round the anticyclone, while in the southern hemisphere it is anticlockwise. Near the centre the winds are mostly variable, light and calm, but increase in strength somewhat towards the anticyclone edge.
