Indicates a low-pressure center. A low-pressure center is 
an area where the measured pressure is lowest relative to 
the surrounding area. Moving away from a low-pressure 
center in any horizontal direction results in increased 
pressure. Winds flow counterclockwise around low-
pressure centers in North America.
Indicates a high-pressure center. A high-pressure center is 
an area where the measured pressure is highest relative to 
the surrounding area. Moving away from a high-pressure 
center in any horizontal direction results in decreased 
pressure. Winds flow clockwise around high-pressure 
centers in North America.
