Western Sahara Barometric Pressure Map
Depending on how many places we monitor in Western Sahara, 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
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
Western Sahara’s air pressure is shaped by two main weather systems. The Azores High brings calm, dry weather with high pressure, especially in summer. Sometimes, low-pressure systems from the Atlantic move in during winter, but they are weaker and bring little rain.
Geography
Geography also changes how air pressure spreads out. Most of Western Sahara is flat desert, so there are no mountains to block or guide winds. The nearby Atlantic Ocean sometimes helps keep pressure steady near the coast, but most of the land stays hot and dry.
Seasonal Cycles
Pressure patterns in Western Sahara change with the seasons. In summer, the Azores High becomes stronger and covers the area with high pressure, causing hot and dry weather. In winter, pressure drops a little as some low-pressure systems appear, but these are not very strong.
Climate Change
Climate change is likely making pressure trends less stable. As the world warms, the Azores High may get stronger or shift, making the region even drier. There may also be more sudden changes in air pressure, which could mean less predictable weather in the future.
