Does the barometric pressure seldom change?

It depends on what you mean by change. If your mean "Does the pressure swing from lows like 28 inches mercury (severe low) to 32 inches mercury (severe high)?" then the answer would be yes. This sort of shift is what causes most severe weather disturbances, such as lines of thunderheads. The collision of a high pressure and low pressure area cause strong winds, usually some precipitation, and even tornados and other severe weather. If, however, you mean "Is the barometric pressure constant most of the time?" then the answer would be no. The barometric pressure has constant small fluctuations, based on a number of factors.
