Results of recent surveys of high velocity HI clouds with the 80-ft reflector at Dwingeloo and with the 260-ft x 80-ft standing paraboloid of the Ohio State University are combined. They show that clouds with high negative radial velocities occur mainly in the longitude range 50° to 220° from N. to S. galactic poles. However, nearly three times as many clouds are found north than south of the galactic plane. Clouds with high positive radial velocities are much less numerous than the negative velocity clouds. They have been found between longitudes 260° to 350° and scattered around lII = 75°, bII = +45°.
