York is surrounded by low-lying hills to the southeast. To the northwest, the city is bounded by the Vale of York. This flat, low-lying area stretches towards the North York Moors. The valley's geography affects the pressure. It can cause air to stagnate and lead to low pressure systems developing.
The nearby Pennine Mountains also influence the pressure. They block the path of westerly winds, which can bring high pressure. This results in York experiencing a higher frequency of low-pressure systems. The city's location in a valley, surrounded by hills and mountains, contributes to its relatively low barometric pressure.
