The north coast of Australia is very prone to cyclones. Do the winds in cyclones that occur along the north coast of Australia blow clockwise or counter clockwise? What phenomena accounts for this?

the winds in cyclones that occur along the north coast of Australia blow clockwise.

This is due to the Coriolis effect

Explanation: The winds in the cyclones in the Southern hemisphere blow clockwise, from left to right. Winds are driven to the left in the Southern Hemisphere and this causes the winds in cyclones to move in a clockwise motion. This is the opposite in the Northern hemisphere where hurricanes spiral in an anticlockwise motion.

The Coriolis Effect is the reason for cyclones and trade winds. It causes currents to bend leftwards in the Southern hemisphere and to the right in the Northern hemisphere

The North coast of Australia cyclone winds blow clockwise.This is due to the Coriolis Effect phenomena.

Explanation:

Simply put, the Coriolis Effect makes things  traveling long distances around the Earth appear to move at a curve as opposed to a straight line.It basically means  the apparent deflection of objects (such as airplanes, wind, missiles, and ocean currents) moving in a straight path relative to the Earth's surface. Its strength is proportional to the speed of the Earth's rotation at different latitudes. It's a phenomenon, but this is because different parts of the Earth move at different speeds.

Winds and Ocean currents are strongly affected by the Coriolis Effect in North Coast Australia cyclones thus making it appear to blow clockwise.

As the Earth rotates in a counter-clockwise direction on its axis, anything flying or flowing over a long distance above its surface is deflected. This always happens because as something moves freely above the Earth's surface, the Earth moves east under the object at a faster speed.
