The barometric pressure in Saratoga Springs changes daily. It depends on weather systems moving in from the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Lakes. Low-pressure systems bring cloudy skies and precipitation. High-pressure systems bring clear skies and fair weather.

Saratoga Springs is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains. The Adirondack Mountains to the north and west. The Hudson River Valley to the south and east. This unique landscape affects the atmospheric pressure. The valley traps cold air in the winter, leading to colder temperatures. In the summer, it traps warm air, leading to higher temperatures.

The mountains influence the path of storms. They force air to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in precipitation. The city's location also leads to a microclimate. The surrounding landscape creates a rain shadow effect. It blocks some of the Atlantic Ocean's moisture from reaching the area.
