Where do high pressure regions form?

High pressure regions form where cold are sinks toward Earth's surface. Low pressure regions form where warm air rises away from Earth's surface.

Air masses for in regions or areas where high pressure is located. The areas where air masses form are known as source regions.

Horse latitudes are actually regions of high pressure, not low pressure.

Cold Regions such as the Polar Regions tend toward low pressure, Tropical regions tend toward high pressure since warm air expands.

High pressure regions form when cold air sinks to earth's surface, then goes across to the low pressure regions and the warm air there rises away from earth's surface creating air circulation.

They form because of high and low pressure in the atmosphere.

(2) high pressure toward regions of low pressure

Diamonds form when they're under high pressure.

Air does generally flow from high pressure to low pressure.

Wind is caused by variation in air pressure. Wind blows from regions of high pressure to regions of low pressure. Generally, high pressure systems bring good weather, while low pressure systems tend to bring stormy weather.

High and low pressure regions.

They form in areas of high pressure.

No. The paths of low pressure systems can be affected by high pressure areas, but they do not revolve around them. A low pressure area rotates about its own center of lowest pressure.

Wind is created by movement of air from regions of high air pressure to low air pressure.

High pressure is a form of weather and is not permanent; a place will not always be in a high pressure system.

It doesn't high pressure does.

First answer was incorrect (in this thread).... Here's the breakdown: Regions of sinking air are called highs, high pressure regions or anticyclones. Clear skies and fair weather usually occur in these regions. Regions of rising air are called lows, low pressure regions, depressions or cyclones. Clouds rain and strong winds often occur in these regions.

High pressure systems and high anticyclone regions produce the strongest winds. This is because the pressure gradients are much larger in these areas.

Tornadoes are always part of a low pressure system and do not form in high pressure.

Depends on which way it goes, pressure could increase or decrease (hence high and low pressure regions).

High pressure is not associated with fronts (or air mass boundaries).

No. Tornadoes and other forms of inclement weather generally form when pressure is low.

Clouds only form when the air pressure is low.

High Pressure, in this case we are talking about a High Pressure System. A High Pressure System doesn't allow clouds to form, which means you can get great weather from this type of system.

In the US, blizzards are most common in the Great Plains and Upper Midwest regions of the country. High atmospheric pressure is a necessary condition for a blizzard to form.
