Pressure map

What is a pressure map

Pressure map shows the current atmospheric pressure around the world, as well as data for the previous and next 36 hours. Regions with the highest pressure are indicated in red, while those with the lowest pressure are shown in dark blue.

The pressure map is made using the Meteum technology. Map data is updated every three hours.
