How is the swirl on the southern hemisphere?

[FrustratedUser]

Is it clockwise or counter clockwise?

When I take a dump here on the northern side it s always clockwise.

counter-clockwise.

Is it true?
I thought it just was a saying.

 

[Evadman]

it is the coreolis (sp?) effect. It will spin backwards. same as tornado's and hurricanes. There is a reason they never cross the equator

 

[FrustratedUser]

Imagine crapping somewhere on the equator.
Now what? CW or CCW?

So are you saying that in the Northan Hemisphere it's clockwise and in the Southern Hemishphere it's counter-clockwise?

I think it's a myth. I'm in Alaska and my toilet flushes counter-clockwise.
