Cyclones,hurricanes and typhoons are caused by warm tropical moister bearing clouds developing in open oceans or seas,as the atmosphere becomes favorable for development,(no wind sharing in the higher parts of the atmosphere)normal thunder storm or clump together,as the system gets larger the the pressure fall within it,what causes a system to go anti clock wise is the earth spinning on its axis(in the southern hemisphere cyclones and etc, spins in reverse when compared to the northern hemisphere).

With the help of trade winds which stares these immense giant weather systems across areas of the planet,also. but the main thing to is that they all start out as small disturbances,or low pressure areas that come into favorable areas for development.

The same is also almost true for northers or nor_Easters along the east coast of the US in winter months.

Or if you are talking about tornadoes,well that the process of cold air from the north clashing with warm air from the Gulf of Mexico,as both air bodies moves along side each other a funnel shape spiral is form,this normally occur es at best in super cell charged thunder cell,due to day time heating or the leading edge of a cold front,the jet stream in this case does the staring of All weather phenomenons across the USA,and the direction at which the spiral goes is anti clock wise,caused by the earth spinning on its axis.hope this helps.

RE:
what causes cyclones?

One word: Sunshine.

The sun heats the earth, which causes the heated area to develop low pressure at the (near) surface. (The sun's heating effect is not uniform geographically, because of cloud cover, land vs. water, etc., etc.)

High pressure (colder) air flows toward the low to fill the vacuum. Cyclones of various types are the result. Cyclones are not just hurricanes and tornadoes. A broad area of low pressure rotating "counter-clockwise" (cyclonically) is also a cyclone.

To set things straight, tornadoes are NOT cyclones, and vice versa. Cyclones, typhoons and hurricanes are all the same thing, just given different names depending on where in the world they form.

Mr J has summarised their formation nicely, but given the limited space, of course he wasn't able to give the complete details.

Anyway, why don't you just do a search on cyclones or consult a weather or geography book? You could get a much more detailed explanation, with pictures to boot.
