In New Orleans, the barometric pressure can vary throughout the year due to the different seasons. During the summer months, the barometric pressure tends to be lower, which can contribute to the development of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall. In contrast, during the cooler winter months, the barometric pressure rises, resulting in more stable and drier weather conditions.
The landscape surrounding New Orleans, with its proximity to the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi River, plays a significant role in the area's atmospheric pressure. The warm, moist air coming from the Gulf can collide with cooler air masses, leading to the formation of low-pressure systems and the potential for tropical storms and hurricanes. Additionally, the flat, low-lying terrain of the region influences the atmospheric pressure patterns, making it more susceptible to sea-level rise and increased risks of storm surge during extreme weather events.
The temperature in New Orleans today is going to be up to 29.9℃ (86℉), so we advise you to use extra skin protection. You can use online tools to see the forecast and history of the UV index in New Orleans.
