A cyclone is a system of winds rotating inward to an area of low atmospheric pressure, with a counterclockwise (northern hemisphere) or clockwise (southern hemisphere) circulation; a depression. The two different cyclones are: Subtropical Cyclone and Tropical Cyclone.The subtropical cyclone's generate more winds, while the tropical cyclone's generate more rain.
