🔍 Key Concepts

• Normal sea-level pressure in inches of mercury • Typical weather-range readings you might see on a ship’s barometer (e.g., deep low vs strong high) • How far barometric pressure usually varies in everyday mid-latitude weather

💭 Think About

• Think about the approximate reading you’ve often heard for standard atmospheric pressure in inches of mercury. Which option actually spans that value? • In a strong storm (deep low), does the pressure go far below standard, and in a strong high, how far above? Which range best covers both extremes without being unrealistically wide? • Compare each option to realistic shipboard barometer readings you might expect (not record-breaking extremes). Which one seems like a practical working scale?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify the value of standard pressure at sea level in inches of mercury and make sure your chosen range includes it comfortably near the middle. • Ask whether the low end of your chosen range would be low enough to include serious storms without being unrealistically low. • Ask whether the high end of your chosen range would be high enough for strong highs but not so high that it’s rarely, if ever, used.
