🔍 Key Concepts

• Low pressure systems and how they affect wind and clouds • General difference between low pressure and high pressure in terms of typical weather • What usually happens to cloud cover and precipitation as a low approaches

💭 Think About

• Think about the kind of weather that is commonly associated with a high pressure system, then consider whether a low is usually the opposite or the same. • Consider what mariners watch for on a barometer: when the pressure is falling, do they usually expect better or worse conditions? • If a low pressure area is moving toward you, what typically happens to winds, clouds, and sea state as it gets closer?

✅ Before You Answer

• Recall that high pressure is generally linked with one type of weather and low pressure with another; don’t mix them up. • Consider whether low pressure tends to bring stable/clear or unsettled/stormy conditions. • Eliminate any choice that suggests no change at all when a significant weather system is approaching.
