Unsaturated air can get saturated threely—by dissipation of water into the air; by
the mixing of two masses of demeanor of various temperatures, both at first
unsaturated yet immersed as a combination; or, most usually, by cooling the air,
which lessens its ability to hold dampness as water vapor once in a while to the
point that the water vapor it holds is adequate for immersion. This barometrical
cooling can be achieved in various manners, as by the appearance of a cooler air
mass or by the development of an air mass up a mountain side. On the off
chance that the cooling proceeds past the place of immersion, and gave there
are adequate buildup cores noticeable all around which small cloud or haze
beads can shape, the abundance dampness will gather out of the air as cloud or
mist drops or different types of precipitation at the Earth's surface.

It states that the atmospheric pressure at sea level normally varies between
about 940 mbar and 1050 mbar Atmospheric pressure, also known
as barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within
the atmosphere of Earth. states that the atmosphere exerts a pressure on any
surface placed within it. states that the atmospheric pressure on a unit area of a
surface is equal to the weight of the "air column" extending from that surface to
the outer fringes of the atmosphere. explains that atmospheric pressure
decreases with height above sea level. states that atmospheric pressure acts in
all directions. states that the atmospheric pressure at sea level normally varies
between about 940 mbar and 1050 mbar. states that the average pressure at sea
level is 1013.25 mbar. explains that the surface pressure rises if air is added to
the "column" above the surface, and vice versa. In most circumstances,
atmospheric pressure is closely approximated by the hydrostatic
pressure caused by the weight of air above the measurement point.
As elevation increases, there is less overlying atmospheric mass, so that
atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing elevation

3. As air masses move around the globe, so air pressure changes. Areas of high
pressure are called anticyclones, whilst low pressure areas are known
as cyclones or depressions. Each brings with it different weather patterns.
Anticyclones typically result in stable, fine weather, with clear skies whilst depressions
are associated with cloudier, wetter, windier conditions. Pressure varies from day to day
at the Earth’s surface - the bottom of the atmosphere. This is, in part, because the Earth
is not equally heated by the Sun. Areas where the air is warmed often have lower
pressure because the warm air rises. A low pressure system has lower pressure at its
center than the areas around it. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises
in the atmosphere where they meet. As the air rises, the water vapor within it
condenses, forming clouds and often precipitation.
Places where the air pressure is high, are called high pressure systems. has higher
pressure at its center than the areas around it. Winds blow away from high
pressure. Swirling in the opposite direction from a low pressure system, the winds of a
high pressure system rotate clockwise north of the equator and counterclockwise south
of the equator.
