The Coriolis force causes the resulting low-level winds to spiral in a counterclockwise direction around the center of the low in the Northern Hemisphere. (Winds swirl clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.) ... Another way to think of a hurricane is as a large heat engine. The fuel is moisture from warm ocean water.
