            You better call it a UTCV which stands for Upper Tropospheric Cyclonic Vortex as explained here:

            Why do you call that a VCAN?

              @idefix37 Here in Brazil it is called VCAN.

              VCAN provoca chuva forte...

                So if your question is in English you better use English acronym otherwise who can understand what you mean if you mix different languages.
