I think it actually makes us feel heavier but barometric pressure goes down when storms form so i could think it leads to higher air pressure (because low pressure creates storms)

Why are areas of sinking air dry?

At a given temperature and pressure, air with greater humidity content is less dense than air with less humidity content. So air with less humidity tends to fall.


Dry air exerts less pressure than air that has?

Dry air exerts less pressure than air that has a higher humidity. In general, air pressure is the sum of the individual pressures of gases present in the air. Dry air lacks any water vapor pressure in the air. Therefore, any air with a humidity above 0% has a higher pressure than dry air.


Why are there changes in air movement air pressure and humidity?

There are changes in air movement,air pressure ,and humidity because of the weather and the condensation.


Why are there changes in humidity?

Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air. Humidity increases when more water evaporates, and decreases when it rains or the humid air is displaced by less humid air. Generally, higher temperatures will lead to higher humidity, as more water will evaporate.


Does a low air pressure mass have more humidity?

Yes a low air pressure mass has more humidity.


Which describes how temperature humidity and pressure vary within an air mass?

Humidity makes the pressure in an air mass increase


What meteorologists refer to the water vapor in the atmosphere as humidity precipitation condensation or air pressure?

Humidity


In terms of density and humidity which conditions characterize a low-pressure area?

A low-pressure area typically has lower density of air molecules compared to high-pressure areas. This reduced air density can lead to increased humidity levels due to the air being more capable of holding moisture. As air rises in a low-pressure system, it cools and condenses, leading to cloud formation and possibly precipitation.


Which of these have an effect on air pressure?

temperature humidity and elevation


What characteristics do all air masses have in common?

they have changes in temperature, pressure, wind speed, and direction and humidity.


What measures air pressure temperature humidity and wind?

a barometer measures air pressure. an anemometer measures wind speed. a thermometer measures temperature.


This measurment is recorded in percentages?

relative humidity
