In Townsville, the barometric pressure is influenced by its coastal location. The pressure can fluctuate rapidly due to the city's exposure to the Coral Sea.
The city is situated on the coastal plain of the Great Dividing Range. The range runs parallel to the coast, creating a rain shadow effect. This effect contributes to the city's relatively low rainfall. The surrounding landscape also includes the coastal waters of Cleveland Bay. The bay's proximity to the city affects the local atmospheric pressure.
