Democratic Republic of the Congo Barometric Pressure Map
Depending on how many places we monitor in Democratic Republic of the Congo, the map displays a sampled set of barometric pressure data to give a clear overview of current conditions.Weather Systems
Several weather systems affect air pressure in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Tropical rain systems often move across the country. These bring low pressure, heavy rain, and thunderstorms. High pressure from the south sometimes pushes cooler, drier air into the south of the country.
Geography
The DRC’s geography changes air pressure patterns. Most of the country is a low, flat basin with rainforests. Mountains in the east rise higher and can block or change wind patterns, affecting local air pressure. Rivers and jungles also keep the air humid and warm, which lowers air pressure.
Seasonal Cycles
Seasons control air pressure cycles. During the rainy season, hot air rises, making low pressure common and causing lots of rain. In the dry season, the air cools, gets heavier, and pressure goes up, bringing drier weather, especially in the south.
Climate Change
Climate change is making air pressure trends less predictable. Temperatures are rising, which tends to lower air pressure. Seasons may change or get longer, and storms could get more powerful, causing bigger swings in air pressure across the DRC.
