Whistler's air pressure is often low because it's surrounded by mountains, which makes the air rise and cool, creating low pressure. This leads to cloudy and rainy weather.
In winter, cold air from the Arctic arrives, bringing low pressure and heavy snowfall. As the air rises over the mountains, it cools, making the snowfall even heavier.
In summer, warm air from the Pacific Ocean brings high pressure, resulting in sunny and dry weather. However, when the warm air meets the mountains, it cools, causing afternoon thunderstorms.
