Guatemala Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Guatemala, 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 Guatemala is influenced by winds from both the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. Sometimes, systems like cold fronts from North America and tropical storms from the Caribbean cause changes in pressure. These systems can bring rain, storms, or cooler weather depending on the season.

Geography

Guatemala’s mountains, valleys, and volcanoes affect air pressure patterns. Higher places like mountains have lower air pressure because the air is thinner. Lowlands near the coasts have higher air pressure because they are closer to sea level. These differences can make weather change quickly in different parts of the country.

Seasonal Cycles

During the dry season, from November to April, high pressure from the north brings cooler, drier air. In the rainy season, from May to October, low pressure develops over the land, allowing warm, moist air to come in from the oceans and bring rain. These pressure cycles repeat every year.

Climate Change

Climate change is making some pressure trends less predictable. Warmer temperatures can create more unusual pressure patterns, leading to stronger storms, longer dry periods, or more intense rain. These changes make it harder to know what weather to expect in the future.

Places in Guatemala

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