The barometric pressure in Sheffield varies throughout the year. It often changes rapidly, resulting in unpredictable weather patterns. This is due to the city's location in a valley.
Sheffield is surrounded by hills and mountains. The Pennine Mountains to the west and the Peak District National Park to the south dominate the landscape. These high grounds influence the airflow and pressure systems around the city.
The surrounding hills and mountains create an orographic effect. This forces air to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in frequent cloud cover and precipitation. As a result, Sheffield experiences a high number of rainy days throughout the year.
