Angola Barometric Pressure Map
Depending on how many places we monitor in Angola, the map displays a sampled set of barometric pressure data to give a clear overview of current conditions.Trends Today
Here you can see which cities experienced the biggest and smallest changes in barometric pressure today. This helps highlight areas with the most stable or unstable weather patterns.
How is it calculated?
Our volatility “beta” number is generated by an algorithm that analyzes hourly barometric pressure changes. It looks at how much the pressure fluctuates from hour to hour. A beta of 0 means no change, perfectly stable pressure. The higher the decimal value, the more variation there has been throughout the day or over a longer period.
Weather Systems
Angola’s air pressure is mainly influenced by the South Atlantic High and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). The South Atlantic High is a system of high pressure over the ocean, bringing cooler, drier air. The ITCZ brings low pressure and is linked to warmer, moist air and rainfall.
Geography
Geography changes how air pressure patterns appear across Angola. The coastal areas and highland interior experience different pressure due to the sea’s cooling effect and the land’s elevation. Highlands tend to have lower air pressure compared to the coastal lowlands, changing how winds and rain move.
Seasonal Cycles
During the dry season, from May to September, the South Atlantic High strengthens, causing higher pressure and dry weather. In the wet season, from October to April, the ITCZ moves southward over Angola, lowering pressure and bringing rain.
Climate Change
Climate change is starting to affect pressure patterns. Scientists see shifts in the strength and location of the South Atlantic High and the ITCZ. This can change when rains start and end, causing unusual droughts or heavy rains in different years.
