The barometric pressure in Penzance changes frequently due to its coastal location. It can rise and fall rapidly, causing sudden changes in the weather. Low pressure systems often bring rain and strong winds, while high pressure brings clear skies and calm conditions.
Penzance is situated on the southwestern tip of England, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the rolling hills of Cornwall to the east. The city's proximity to the sea means that the prevailing westerly winds blowing in from the ocean have a significant impact on the atmospheric pressure. The hills to the east can block or redirect these winds, causing pressure changes to occur more rapidly.
The combination of the ocean and surrounding hills also affects the temperature and humidity levels in Penzance. The sea air keeps temperatures relatively mild, especially in winter, while the hills can trap moisture-laden air, leading to fog and mist. This unique landscape contributes to the city's distinct and changeable weather patterns.
