Aruba Barometric Pressure Map
Depending on how many places we monitor in Aruba, 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.
Most volatile
- Oranjestad: 0.47
Least volatile
- Oranjestad: 0.47
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
Tropical weather systems like the trade winds mainly control air pressure in Aruba. These steady winds blow from the east and bring consistent weather. Sometimes, distant storms can cause changes in pressure, but hurricanes rarely hit Aruba directly.
Geography
Aruba is a small, flat island surrounded by ocean. Because there are no tall mountains, air can move freely across the island. The nearby warm ocean keeps air pressure stable and helps prevent sudden changes.
Seasonal Cycles
Air pressure in Aruba stays fairly high throughout the year. In the summer, pressure goes down a bit as the air gets warmer and rises. During the winter, pressure increases slightly because the air is cooler and sinks. These changes follow the yearly shift in temperature.
Climate Change
As the world’s climate gets warmer, ocean and air temperatures around Aruba change. This can shift pressure patterns, making the weather less predictable. There might be more ups and downs in pressure, which could bring new weather problems to the island.
