Barometric pressure

University Park is located in a valley. The surrounding mountains affect the atmospheric pressure. The Appalachian Mountains are to the east and north. The Allegheny Mountains are to the west and south.

The mountains block winds from the east and west. They allow winds from the north and south to enter the valley. This creates variations in air pressure. The valley itself traps cold air in the winter. It makes the air more dense and increases pressure.

In the summer, the valley heats up quickly. The air expands and becomes less dense. This decreases pressure. The surrounding mountains also create a rain shadow effect. It reduces precipitation in the valley and affects air pressure.
