The barometric pressure in Blantyre, Southern Region, Malawi is influenced by the African high-pressure belt. It varies throughout the year due to the city's location near the tropics. This results in changes in atmospheric pressure patterns.
Blantyre is situated in a valley surrounded by hills and mountains. The Shire Highlands to the northwest and the Mulanje Mountains to the east affect the local climate. The valley traps warm air, leading to higher pressure during the day. At night, the cool air from the surrounding hills flows into the valley, causing pressure to drop.
The surrounding landscape also influences the wind patterns. Moist air from Lake Malawi to the northeast brings rainfall during the wet season. Dry air from the southwest dominates during the dry season, leading to clear skies and low humidity. This interaction of wind patterns and topography impacts the atmospheric pressure in Blantyre.
