Barometric Pressure in Philippines

Philippines Barometric Pressure Map

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.

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

Several weather systems control air pressure in the Philippines. Tropical cyclones (typhoons), the monsoon winds (Habagat and Amihan), and the Intertropical Convergence Zone bring changes in pressure. Low pressure usually means cloudy, rainy weather, while high pressure brings dry, sunny days.

Geography

The Philippines is an island country with many mountains and valleys. Mountains can block or direct winds, changing local air pressure patterns. Coastal areas may feel pressure changes faster than places farther inland or behind mountain ranges.

Seasonal Cycles

Pressure in the Philippines changes with the seasons. During Amihan (northeast monsoon, November to April), cool air comes from the north, creating higher pressure. During Habagat (southwest monsoon, May to October), warm, moist air from the sea lowers the pressure and brings rain.

Climate Change

Climate change also affects air pressure. Warmer ocean temperatures make weather systems stronger and less predictable. Air pressure may change faster, and there may be more low pressure areas, causing more storms and extreme weather.

Places in Philippines

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