Austria Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Austria, the map displays a sampled set of barometric pressure data to give a clear overview of current conditions.

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.

Most volatile

Least volatile

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

Austria’s air pressure is influenced by weather systems like the Atlantic lows and the Siberian highs. Atlantic lows bring wet, unstable weather from the northwest, causing falling air pressure. Siberian highs push dry, cold air from the east, leading to high pressure and settled, chilly days. Mediterranean fronts can also bring changes, especially in the south.

Geography

Austria’s mountains and valleys make air pressure patterns more complicated. The Alps block or guide air currents, so valleys sometimes have trapped air and different pressure than higher places. Sudden changes in elevation make the pressure vary across short distances. In the flat eastern areas, air pressure changes are usually smoother.

Seasonal Cycles

In winter, Austria often has high pressure over the east because of cold air from Russia, giving foggy and stable conditions. In summer, pressure is generally lower, with more storms and quick changes, especially when warm, moist air arrives from the south or west. Spring and autumn are times of shifting pressure, with frequent changes as one season swaps for another.

Climate Change

Climate change brings more unpredictable air pressure. Extreme weather events like heavy rains and heatwaves may become more common as pressure patterns shift. Winters may see fewer stable high-pressure days, while summers can have more sudden storms as air masses mix more intensely. This makes Austria’s weather harder to predict than before.

Places in Austria

You can find your city in the lists below, by using our search, or on the Austria Pressure Map above. We're tracking barometric pressure across multiple locations in Austria to keep you informed.

Each city includes a pressure status showing whether it's currently high, normal or low, along with two volatility values: one for today and one for the full period, usually 14 days. These help you see how much the pressure is changing over time.
