The weather in Bamako causes the air pressure to change constantly. When it's hot, the air rises and pressure decreases. When it's cool, the air sinks and pressure increases.

Bamako's high elevation and flat landscape make the air pressure more unstable. Mountains and hills can block or redirect winds, affecting pressure. The Niger River also influences the air around Bamako.
