A bar is a metric unit of pressure and isobars are lines on a weather map that connect points of equal air pressure. Because variations in air pressure drive atmospheric winds, isobars give ...

MIKE MOSS SAYS: Phil, Winds would be perpendicular to the isobars is not for the rotation of the earth, which imposes a virtual force called the Coriolis effect. Over a significant time and distance ...

Hourly weather observations that include sea-level pressure readings are plotted or printed on weather maps that meteorologists can analyze. Isobars are drawn by connecting points having equal ...

We will get off to a breezy start to the work week.Wind gusts this afternoon will be as high as 25 mph.But the good news is, ...

It's half a century since the BBC introduced new weather symbols in its forecasts. Darren Bett looks back at what has changed since and what has stayed the same.

An isobar is a line of constant pressure. These lines are often measured in 2, 4, or 10 millibar increments. When you see lots of isobars over an area, most likely that area is experiencing lots of ...
