The Great Red Spot is a high pressure system. It rotates counter-clockwise in the southern hemisphere

I know alot of documentaries have been done about hurricanes.. Especially individual hurricanes like Camille. But what we really need is a good documentary that will debunk some hurricane myths in general. When will the networks realize that they have a civic obligation to educate the public not just entertain them.
