What storms do, circling northern mountains (5)
I believe the answer is:
range
This could be a double definition.
'what storms do circling northern' is the first definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'mountains' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for range that I've seen before include "on which 'Dr Brewster Higley' felt at home?" , "Open grazing land or cooking stove" , "Old-style cooking stove" , "Series, of mountains perhaps" , "Cooking stove or location for target practice" .)
