The barometric pressure in Milwaukee is influenced by its location on the shores of Lake Michigan. It can fluctuate significantly over short periods. Changes in pressure often bring changes in weather. Low pressure systems can lead to cloudiness and precipitation. High pressure systems bring fair weather and clear skies.
Milwaukee is situated on a plain surrounded by the lake to the east and bluffs to the west. This landscape allows cold air from Canada to flow down the lake shore. Warm air from the Gulf of Mexico also moves into the region. The clash of these air masses affects the atmospheric pressure. The lake's presence also contributes to moisture and temperature moderation.
As a result, Milwaukee's weather is characterized by significant variations in temperature and precipitation throughout the year.
