Nicaragua Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Nicaragua, 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

Tropical weather systems control air pressure in Nicaragua. The country feels lows from the Intertropical Convergence Zone and occasional highs from the Atlantic. Hurricanes and tropical storms can also cause sudden pressure drops, leading to windy and rainy conditions.

Geography

Nicaragua’s geography influences where air pressure is highest or lowest. The Caribbean coast often has lower pressure because of warm, moist air over the ocean. The mountains in the interior and west create higher pressure areas and act as barriers, changing wind and pressure patterns.

Seasonal Cycles

During the wet season from May to November, low pressure is common, bringing rain and storms. In the dry season from December to April, high pressure dominates, with clear skies and little rain. These seasonal cycles repeat every year but may change a little in timing and strength.

Climate Change

Climate change is making pressure trends less predictable. Warmer ocean temperatures can cause more intense low-pressure systems and heavier rains. High-pressure dry spells may also last longer, increasing the risk of drought. These changes make Nicaragua’s weather more extreme and harder to predict.

Places in Nicaragua

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