Barometric

 

Pressure

 

 

Note:

 

The

 

weather

 

station

 

console

 

displays

 

two

 

different

 

pressures:

 

absolute

 

(measured)

 

and

 

relative

 

(corrected

 

to

 

sea-level).

 

 

To

 

compare

 

pressure

 

conditions

 

from

 

one

 

location

 

to

 

another,

 

meteorologists

 

correct

 

pressure

 

to

 

sea-level

 

conditions.

 

Because

 

the

 

air

 

pressure

 

decreases

 

as

 

you

 

rise

 

in

 

altitude,

 

the

 

sea-level

 

corrected

 

pressure

 

(the

 

pressure

 

your

 

location

 

would

 

be

 

at

 

if

 

located

 

at

 

sea-level)

 

is

 

generally

 

higher

 

than

 

your

 

measured

 

pressure.
