Barometric Pressure in Colombia

We monitor barometric pressure across 12 cities in Colombia, giving you up-to-date insights into local weather patterns.

Flag of Colombia

Whether you're tracking pressure changes for health reasons, planning outdoor activities, or planning a fishing trip, our data is tailored to conditions in Colombia, with detailed readings city by city.

Colombia Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Colombia, 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

Large weather systems like the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) move over Colombia. When the ITCZ is overhead, rising warm air creates low pressure and brings clouds and rain. Sometimes, cold air from the south or warm air from the Caribbean also changes local air pressure.

Geography

Colombia has mountains, valleys, and lowlands. Air pressure is lower in the Andes mountains because there is less air above you. In lowland areas like the Amazon and coastal regions, air pressure is higher. These differences in height create many local wind and weather patterns.

Seasonal Cycles

During the year, pressure changes with the seasons. When the sun is north of the equator, Colombia's northern regions get lower pressure and more rain. When the sun moves south, the Amazon region gets more storms and low pressure while the north dries out.

Climate Change

Climate change is making pressure patterns less regular. Warming temperatures can shift the ITCZ and change when and where low pressure happens. This means some places may get more storms or longer dry periods than before. Scientists are still studying these trends.

Places in Colombia

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