Barbados Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Barbados, 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

Air pressure in Barbados is influenced by weather systems like the Atlantic High and tropical waves. The Atlantic High is a large area of high pressure that sits over the Atlantic Ocean, bringing steady winds and fair weather. When tropical waves or storms pass by, they lower air pressure and can bring rain and windy conditions.

Geography

Barbados is a small, flat island, so its geography doesn't create big changes in air pressure like you might see near tall mountains. Instead, pressure is mostly the same across the island. However, its spot in the Atlantic makes it more exposed to ocean weather systems, which can cause rapid changes in pressure when they arrive.

Seasonal Cycles

Air pressure in Barbados follows a seasonal cycle. During the dry season from December to May, the Atlantic High is strong, so pressure stays higher and there is less rain. In the rainy season from June to November, tropical waves and storms are more common. This makes air pressure drop more often and increases rainfall and wind.

Climate Change

Climate change is causing the Atlantic High to shift and change strength. This can lead to less predictable air pressure patterns in Barbados. Some years may see stronger or longer-lasting high-pressure systems, causing more dry weather. Other years might have more low-pressure systems, raising the chance of storms and heavy rain.

Places in Barbados

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