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
Large weather systems cause high and low air pressure across Russia. In winter, cold polar air brings big high-pressure systems, called Siberian highs. In summer, warm air causes low-pressure systems in the same areas. Cyclones from the Atlantic and anticyclones from Siberia often meet and mix, making Russia’s weather unpredictable.
Geography
Russia’s land is mostly flat and far from oceans, letting dry or cold air build up for a long time. Mountains like the Urals and Caucasus can block or guide air movement, changing pressure patterns in those regions. Western Russia gets more ocean winds, so pressure shifts more there than deep inland.
Seasonal Cycles
Winter has a very strong Siberian high-pressure system. This traps cold air and keeps the weather calm and dry. In summer, the land heats up and creates low-pressure areas. These draw in moister, warmer air and can bring more storms and rain, especially in the west and south.
Climate Change
Climate change is making pressure patterns less predictable. Warmer temperatures weaken the big winter high-pressure systems. Changing sea ice in the Arctic also affects air flow. As the planet heats up, pressure cycles in Russia may change, bringing new weather extremes.
Places in Russia
You can find your city in the lists below, by using our search, or on the Russia Pressure Map above. We're tracking barometric pressure across multiple locations in Russia 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.
