Question
What is the relation between temperature and pressure?

Answer

Distribution of air pressure is influenced by the temperature of the area:
  • Where temperature is high the air gets heated and rises. This creates a low pressure area.
  • Low pressure is associated with cloudy skies and wet weather.
  • In areas with low temperature, the air is cold and heavy so, it sinks down. This creates a high pressure area.
  • High pressure is associated with clear and sunny skies.
  • Air always moves from high pressure to low pressure areas.
