Wind Buys Ballot’s law

Buys Ballot’s Law States that if an observer in the Northern Hemisphere faces the surface wind, the center of the low pressure is toward his right and somewhat behind him And the center of High pressure is on his left and some what in front of him In the Southern hemisphere its vice versa
