Nassau is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean. The ocean has a significant impact on the atmospheric pressure. The warm ocean water heats the air. This causes the air to rise and creates an area of low pressure.
The island is relatively flat. There are no mountains or hills to disrupt the airflow. The flat landscape allows the trade winds to blow freely. This brings consistent weather patterns to the area.
The trade winds come from the east. They bring dry air from the ocean. The dry air helps maintain the high barometric pressure. The consistent winds also keep the pressure stable.
