Forecast

Makassar has a tropical climate with high air pressure. The city's coastal location near the equator affects its air pressure. Warm ocean waters heat the air, making it rise and creating low-pressure areas.

Makassar's air pressure is usually around 1013 millibars. The mountainous surroundings to the east and north can block winds, affecting air pressure. In the dry season, from May to October, air pressure is slightly higher.

The wet season, from November to April, brings lower air pressure and more rain. Makassar's climate type, tropical savanna, results in relatively consistent air pressure throughout the year. The city's air pressure can fluctuate due to wind patterns and nearby weather systems. Pressure changes often bring thunderstorms and heavy rainfall.
