Thunderstorms are usually associated with low pressure.
Winds blow into a thunderstorm because of differences in air pressure. Air from surrounding areas with higher pressure rushes into the lower pressure area of the thunderstorm, resulting in wind movement towards the storm.
Conditions in the atmosphere change a lot over a small distance in the vicinity of thunderstorms. Where the rain is falling, the pressure goes up by a few millibars (about 0.1 inches of mercury). This is because as the rain falls, some of it evaporates, which makes the air cooler and heavier. Another process is going on, however, that makes it complicated. As the air goes up in the thunderstorm's updraft, it creates an area of low pressure under the updraft that acts to pull air in from around the thunderstorm. This low pressure region is also typically a few millibars lower than the environment of the storm. At the top of the storm the pressure is high compared to places far away from the storm and air is blown out.
The higher up you are the lesser the air pressure in the atmosphere.
The air is very fast. Especially in a severe thunderstorm. The wind can go as fast as 100mph.

Air pressure within a thunderstorm can vary, but it typically decreases as the storm intensifies due to rising warm air. In extreme cases, the pressure can drop significantly within the core of a thunderstorm, creating a low-pressure system that contributes to the storm's intensity.
yes the air pressure changes

The average air pressure in a thunderstorm can vary, but it is typically lower than the surrounding air due to the updrafts and downdrafts associated with the storm. This pressure drop can contribute to the intensity of the storm and the formation of severe weather.
a hurricane
When a Hurricane, Tornado or Thunderstorm, approaches, the barometric pressure falls but I would not ascribe the adjective "drastic" to this.
They are called tornadoes. Tornadoes are violent rotating columns of air that extend from a thunderstorm to the ground.
equalize air pressure during environmental change
During a lightning storm, the air pressure does not significantly change. Lightning is an electrical discharge that occurs between clouds or between a cloud and the ground, but it does not have a direct impact on the air pressure in the atmosphere.
