The barometric pressure in Essen is influenced by the city's location in the Rhine-Ruhr valley. This means that the pressure can fluctuate strongly. It can drop significantly when low-pressure systems move in from the west. Conversely, the pressure can rise rapidly when high-pressure systems dominate.
Essen is surrounded by hills and mountains to the south and east. This unique landscape affects the atmospheric pressure. The hills force air to rise, which can lead to cloud formation and precipitation. In addition, the nearby Sauerland region can block or redirect air masses, further influencing the local pressure.
