TYPES OF AIR PRESSURE
TYPES OF AIR PRESSURE There are 2 types of Air Pressure:
LOW PRESSURE Low pressure usually means it will be

Low pressure means no force, or pressure, to push the clouds and storms away.
HIGH PRESSURE High pressure areas usually create
sunny and clear skies.
The higher pressure in the atmosphere pushes all the clouds away.
