Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
A cyclone is typically associated with a low-pressure system, not a high-pressure system. In a cyclone, the air moves towards the low-pressure center and as it spirals inward, it gains speed and energy, causing strong winds and potentially stormy conditions.
A high-pressure system, on the other hand, is usually associated with calm and clear weather, where the wind moves outward from the center of the high-pressure area.
