Syria Barometric Pressure Map
Depending on how many places we monitor in Syria, the map displays a sampled set of barometric pressure data to give a clear overview of current conditions.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
Syria’s air pressure often changes because of different weather systems. In winter, cold air from Europe brings high pressure. Sometimes, Mediterranean low-pressure systems move in, causing storms and rain. In summer, hot dry air from the Arabian Desert leads to low pressure and clear skies.
Geography
Geography affects where pressure is high or low. Syria has mountains along the west and flat deserts in the east. Mountains can block moist air, causing higher pressure inland. The coast gets more low-pressure systems because it’s closer to the Mediterranean Sea.
Seasonal Cycles
Pressure cycles change with the seasons. In winter, high pressure from cold air is common. In spring and autumn, pressure can change fast, bringing wind and dust storms. In summer, strong low pressure makes for long, hot, dry days.
Climate Change
Climate change is leading to more extreme pressure swings in Syria. Hotter summers cause even lower pressure. Some scientists say storms might get stronger and less predictable, since rising temperatures change old air pressure patterns.
Places in Syria
You can find your city in the lists below, by using our search, or on the Syria Pressure Map above. We're tracking barometric pressure across multiple locations in Syria 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.
