Weather prediction: Expect more wet and unsettled conditions
The daily total fluctuation in pressure in Jerusalem is 2.5 hPa, with a low of 1017.6 hPa and a high of 1020.1 hPa. The daily average here is higher than in most cities around the world.
The barometric pressure in Jerusalem is typically high, ranging from 761 to 766 millibars. This is due to its location in the Eastern Mediterranean. The pressure can drop slightly during the summer months.
Jerusalem is surrounded by mountains to the east and hills to the west. The mountains block moist air from the Dead Sea. This reduces humidity and influences the atmospheric pressure. The hills to the west allow winds from the Mediterranean to enter the city. These winds bring a small amount of moisture.
The landscape also affects the temperature and precipitation patterns. The elevated terrain of Jerusalem creates a rain shadow effect. This results in lower rainfall than in other Mediterranean cities. The surrounding hills and mountains also block cold air from the north. This keeps Jerusalem relatively mild during the winter months.
