Newport News is situated near the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay. The city's landscape is a mix of coastal plains and low-lying areas. The ocean and bay have a moderating effect on the city's climate. Water temperatures influence the atmospheric pressure. During the summer, warm ocean waters contribute to higher pressure. In the winter, cooler ocean waters lead to lower pressure.

The surrounding landscape also affects the atmospheric pressure in Newport News. The city is bounded by rivers and wetlands. These water bodies absorb and release moisture, which impacts the pressure. The terrain's gentle slope towards the ocean allows air to move freely. This freedom of air movement contributes to the fluctuating pressure.
