Barometric pressure question

Recommended Posts

those are inches of mercury. "normal" is 29.92 inches of mercury.

that is how high the atmosphere can hold a column of mercury in a vacuum tube.

What readings are used for general pressure readings and trends? What is high? What is low? Middle of the road?

I am looking for readings inHg like 29.25, 30.00, 28.50......



Something to bear in mind, especially if you live somewhere mountainous, is that these readings are not the actual pressure at that location, but are "corrected" to sea level values using a standard formula (which itself may not reflect reality).
