Freetown's weather patterns cause barometric pressure to change frequently. Pressure drops when storms approach and rises when they leave. These changes can be sudden and large.

The city's high elevation and surrounding hills affect atmospheric pressure. The hills block air from the Atlantic, making pressure rise and fall differently than at the coast.

In the dry season, pressure is usually high and steady. In the rainy season, pressure is lower and more variable. This matches the pattern of sunny and cloudy skies.

Freetown has a tropical savanna climate with high temperatures and high humidity. This means barometric pressure fluctuates, causing frequent changes in weather with rain and sunshine.
