Forecast

The barometric pressure in Addis Ababa is typically high, ranging from 760 to 770 millibars. This is due to the city's location at a high altitude. Addis Ababa is one of the highest capital cities in the world.

The city is situated in the Ethiopian Highlands, a mountainous region. The surrounding landscape is characterized by rugged terrain and elevations. This unique geography affects the air pressure in the city.

The highlands force warm air to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in a relatively high pressure system. This system dominates the weather in Addis Ababa. As a result, the city experiences a mild climate with moderate temperatures.

The surrounding mountains also block moisture-laden air from the Atlantic Ocean from reaching Addis Ababa. This leads to a relatively dry climate with limited humidity. The unique combination of high altitude and rugged landscape shapes the city's weather patterns.
