Indian Ocean April 11, 2005 at 1:02AM. To prove how dynamic these vortexes are this is a clear illustration. The cyclone in the Indian Ocean has been affected by the ionic periphery of the Antarctica Vortex. The symmetry of the cyclone is pulled into the vortex flost which still appears in the picture over the year at the bottom caption. The periphery of the cyclone is pulled into the direction of the vortex flow. One step further the storm system to the east is also being lead into the cyclone. To the west of the cyclone the air mass that reaches ACROSS Africa is being pulled into the cyclone and hence into the vortex flow of the Antarctica.
