As the highs lows are part of the earth's atmosphere and thus trapped in a non-inertial frame of reference, they indeed experience the fictitious forces, such as the Coriolis and the centrifugal force.

The coriolis effect is not an actual force, that's all I'm saying.

Which is why we call it the Coriolis effect rather than the Coriolis force
