When the barometric pressure rises it means calm fair weather is coming or is already occurring. When the barometric pressure falls it means foul weather is on the way such as rain and storms and clouds.

What causes increases in barometric pressures?

Low and high pressure systems. Obviously if you have a Low pressure system the barometric pressure will get low. High pressure causes the barometric pressure to rise.

How does barometric pressure change with altitude?

Because pressure decreases as you go up in altitude and increases when you go down in altitude. Hope this helped!

What happens to the barometric pressure in a hail storm?

In most storms, which always includes hail storms, the barometric pressure drops. Which the pressure drops, that would allow clouds to form. The more it drops, the more intense the storm can get.

What is atmospherical pressure at higher and lower altitude?

In general, barometric pressure, or atmospheric pressure, drops as you go up in elevation. For example, at 18,000 ft. above sea level, the average barometric pressure is about half the average pressure at sea level (see the related links for charts) However, barometric pressure also varies widely with the weather (weather charts almost always show the movement of low pressure and high pressure zones), so true barometric pressure cannot simply be calculated, but must be measured. In the United States, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration provides hourly barometric readings for many locations across the country (see related National Weather Service measurement link)
