In general high pressure indicates good weather and low pressure indicates storms.

High pressure on a barometer indicates good weather conditions with clear skies and calm winds, while low pressure typically indicates the likelihood of rain, clouds, and potentially stormy weather.
A barometer is the weather instrument used to measure air pressure. It can help indicate whether the pressure is high, low, or stable, which can provide information about current or upcoming weather conditions.
In order to know that a storm is coming, you need to know the air pressure. Storms are normally associated with a Low Pressure System. A Barometer can be a tool you can use to predict an oncoming storm.
A barometer is primarily used to measure atmospheric pressure, which can help predict changes in weather. It is also used in various industries such as aviation and meteorology to monitor air pressure and determine weather patterns. Additionally, barometers are used in scientific research and experiments to study atmospheric pressure variations.
A barometer is a scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. It helps meteorologists make weather predictions by indicating changes in air pressure, which can be used to forecast upcoming weather conditions. The two main types of barometers are mercury barometers and aneroid barometers.
Very simply put, cold air is denser than warm air - thus as air of differing temperature passes over you (or rather your barometer) the barometric pressure will change. The arrival of warm air will cause the barometric pressure to fall and as warm air holds more moisture than cold air a falling barometric pressure will herald the arrival of rain. Conversely, if the pressure rises this will indicate some nice sunny days to come Further, if the pressure falls (or rises) fast, then there are likely to be strong winds.
