Something along these lines.....
All the same thing really just depends if you're northern or southern hemisphere.

Cyclone = Clockwise (low pressure southern hemisphere, high pressure northern)
Anti-Cyclone = anti-clockwise
Hurricane = Typhoon = Anti-Cyclone + Large + Fast
Tornado = small local cyclone

Seems like in the US you call anti-cyclone just by cyclone tho......
