Panama Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Panama, 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

The weather in Panama is shaped by large systems like the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), which is a band of clouds near the equator. When the ITCZ is close, Panama can get lots of rain and low air pressure. Sometimes, high-pressure air from the north can push into Panama and change the weather.

Geography

Panama’s geography also affects how air pressure is distributed. The country is narrow with mountains in the middle. These mountains block air movement. On one side of the mountains, it might be raining and have low pressure, while the other side can be drier with higher pressure.

Seasonal Cycles

Panama has two main seasons. The wet season, from May to November, brings low pressure and lots of clouds because warm air rises and cools. The dry season, from December to April, usually has higher air pressure, clear skies, and less rain because there are fewer clouds.

Climate Change

Climate change is making Panama’s air pressure patterns less predictable. Temperatures are rising, which can cause air to move in different ways. Storms and extreme weather could become more common if pressure patterns keep changing.

Places in Panama

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