Weather prediction: Expect wet, unsettled weather and a strong breeze
The daily total fluctuation in pressure in Ankara is 6.1 hPa, with a low of 1008.2 hPa and a high of 1014.3 hPa. The daily average here is higher than in most cities around the world.
The barometric pressure in Ankara is influenced by the city's inland location. It fluctuates throughout the year due to changing weather patterns. Pressure drops when low-pressure systems approach from the west. Rises occur when high-pressure systems dominate from the east.
Ankara is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains to the north and south. This unique landscape affects the atmospheric pressure. The mountains create a channeling effect, directing air masses into the city. As a result, Ankara experiences a mix of continental and Mediterranean climate influences.
The city's elevation, at around 900 meters above sea level, also contributes to its distinct pressure patterns. This height leads to lower air pressure compared to coastal regions. Weather systems from different directions interact with the topography, resulting in varying pressure conditions.
