In fluid dynamics, the vorticity is a pseudovector field that describes the local spinning motion of a fluid near some point (the tendency of something to rotate ), as would be seen by an observer located at that point and traveling along with the fluid. Conceptually, the vorticity could be determined by marking the particles of the fluid in a sma...

A measure of the local rotation in a fluid flow. In weather analysis and forecasting, it usually refers to the vertical component of rotation (i.e., rotation about a vertical axis) and is used most often in reference to synoptic scale or mesoscale weather systems. By convention, positive values indicate cyclonic rotation.
