What does Air Pressure mean?

Air pressure is the amount of air pushing down on you over a given area. In weather reports it is generally based on 14.7 lb/in2 as "normal". It rises or lowers with high or low systems and predicts changes in weather such as storms. many household barometers measure air pressure and have an indicator that points to weather conditions such as Fair, Storm, or Change as the pressure changes.
