Tanzania Barometric Pressure Map

Depending on how many places we monitor in Tanzania, 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

Weather systems bring changes in air pressure across Tanzania. One main influence is the Intertropical Convergence Zone, or ITCZ, which moves across the country and causes shifts between wet and dry seasons. Tropical cyclones rarely reach Tanzania, but pressure changes in the Indian Ocean can still affect weather.

Geography

Tanzania’s geography also changes how air pressure is distributed. Coastal areas near the Indian Ocean often have lower pressure because of warm sea breezes. Mountains, like those in the north and southwest, usually have lower pressure at higher altitudes. Inland plains can have higher pressure, especially during cooler months.

Seasonal Cycles

Pressure patterns in Tanzania change through the year. From about March to May, the ITCZ moves southward, bringing low pressure and rainy weather. During the dry season, around June to October, high pressure from the south leads to dry, cooler air. Pressure rises and falls with the changing seasons, controlling when the rains start and stop.

Climate Change

Climate change can cause long-term shifts in air pressure trends. As temperatures rise, pressure systems can change course or get stronger. This may affect when seasons arrive or how strong storms and dry spells become. For Tanzania, this means more unpredictable weather linked to air pressure changes.

Places in Tanzania

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