- In this series, it tells us how the air pressure work in our environment.
At first glance, air appears to have no power. However, air influences our lives in many ways, and causes various meteorological phenomena. Snow, rain and wind are just some of the phenomena created by wind. These weather patterns vary depending on the pressure of the air. Air is all around us. It is difficult to tell since it has no color and no smell, but air varies in temperature and humidity. A large body of air with the same temperature and humidity throughout is called an ‘air mass.’
Places with higher air pressure than the surrounding areas are marked High (H), and areas of low pressure are marked Low (L). The movement of air from high pressure to low pressure is called ‘wind.’ The direction and characteristics of the wind that blows in areas of low pressure and high pressure are different. Around low pressure areas, rising air currents form, and around high air pressure areas, falling air currents form. In low pressure areas, moisture-laden air rises up and forms clouds, resulting in cloudy, rainy, or snowy weather. And around high pressure areas, the air descends, making it difficult for clouds to form. This results in clear weather.
Let's take a closer look at the air pressure story!

At 4:50 it is all you have to know for understanding the link between barometric pressure and weather behaviour. After tons of research in this video less than a minute made me understand all.
Depression - The sun heats up both land and sea. At sea, it creates a high pressure area which means cooler air is collected. Land on the other hand has warmer and dry aair so to balance these areas out the sea replaces the land’s low pressure area with the cooler air. This creates a depression.
The sun heats up both land and sea. At sea, it creates a LOW pressure area and NOT a High pressure area.
(Tryin to figure that out causes me depression too)
We don't call cyclones willy-willies in Australia. They are just cyclones. A willy-Willy is a small vortex of wind that picks up dust for a short time. Blink and you will miss it.
Who else is here cause school assignments 😂💔
Who isn’t?
YT_TGC Works meeeeeeee
Trust
phục êwê too late..btw was investigating and go do your hw
Meeeeeee
That gave a high pressure in my head🥴
"Air seems powerless"
Our lungs: Am I A Joke To You?
ha ha ha
ha ha ha
Now i saw this, i cant stop wondering what kind of air, pressure, clouds above me. Curiosity hit me so hard.
I’m here because of my curiosity. Just sat and randomly wondered about these.
Same. My question was how does the cold affect the air tho.. ig the question it self don’t even make since after watching this video
Same
you and me both.

no problem with feeding the brain
HI class watching this currently in science class because our teacher sent us the liiiinnnkkk.
@Caitlin Rohde loll
This video actually really helped me for my global understanding on meteorology for my ATPL exam. Thank you very much!
me too
actually really very
Nah
didn't you mean to say, "your global understanding on melancholy?" 《:~\
i just wanted to know what a LOW PRESSURE AREA is... 5 minutes in im confused.
Yehhhh sammeeee
Still want to know? Lol I can help
A low pressure area is a warm air mass where air particles are farther apart than normal.
@@okand-1124 HELP.
@@MJFinn A low pressure area is just warm air basically
This video is so simple yet so Educational... Good work! 👍
This is the most informative meteorological video I've seen on CZcams, damn.
Choosing to color the high pressure area red and the low pressure area blue is so counterintuitive to my brain, and made these concepts more difficult to understand. I associate the color red with heat and the color blue with cold. I have to constantly pause and remind myself that the red H is a COLD area where the air particles are more compact, and the blue L is a HOT area where the air particles are farther apart. If they made the red H the hot area, and the blue L the cold area, then I wouldn't have had to watch this 3 times to understand what is going on.
I've always taught H is blue and L is red to my students in America. In this video they change it up part way through. Isn't that a mistake?
Amazing video. Such a great video to watch before teaching about air pressure and air masses!
9:57 till the end was understandable
I'm just here because I want to learn how to use a barometer, this was very informative.
I have an RYA exam tomorrow and this finally makes it make sense 😂 Thank you!
never been more confused

Hang on how is the cold front going in the same direction as the warm front when both arrows are in opposite?!
The H should have been blue and the L should have been red. Because low pressure occurs when it's warm and vice versa. That's my only critique of the video! Great work
uhm am me supposed to write this down 0-0
MY BRAIN :(
AM VERY CONFUSED I WATCHED IT 2 TIMES OVER
I know im nerdy lol😂
I wouldnt
Same
you should write notes if you want to review but don't want to repeat the video.
mhh !! the weatherman is going to make more sense now
High "H" should be blue. Low "L" should be red.
No
There's no color that it 'should be' color doesn't represent a pressure so he can color it whatever he wants
No cuz this isn't related to temperature... High pressure zone can be hot or cold and low pressure zone also.
Yeruchum Dear it is the standards at least in most western countries that H is denoted in blue and L is red for high and low pressure respectively. He is correct.
@@joshuagavaghan224 who maintans these standards?
Fyi... typhoons spin in a counter clockwise fashion in the northern hemisphere not in a clockwise fashion as pictured in the video.
NO,, only 95 percent of them do.
This video explains everything 👍🏽
I'm having to watch this for middle school and it's like it's talking to elementary kids
I agree I’m in G7
Lol true
IPastelCloudI · yeah cool
i’m a junior and i have to watch this 😭
Gacha Ximena / yea same
Im here cause i love science!❤
you are a nerd
At 9:04 you said “friction with the ground causes a lot of kinetic energy” instead of “a loss of kinetic energy” as was stated in the subtitles.
very useful for those who are studying meteorology subject for ATPL exams
Ah yes, rain and wind are created by...wind.. thanks for the clarification
THIS VIDEO IS AMAZIN
I’m here cause of school
Thanks 😊
Nice....
thank you sooo much this willl help me for my test😄☺
I have to watch this for school how about you guys
Add879 XD ya same it sucks
Yep I agree
Yep XD
Um, what?!
My exact thought
Why is High Pressure H Red and Low Pressure L Blue? That's backwards.
Michael Sheldon High pressure brings sunny weather - sun equals red. Low pressure brings precipitation/rain - rain equals blue. I hope this helps!
I understand that reasoning, but look at any weather map reported by news outlets and you'll see it's backwards. Low pressure is red because it's warmer than surrounding air, warm air rises, that allows for evaporation, which allows for precipitation. If air/water vapor doesn't rise, it can't fall back to earth. H is blue because it's colder than surrounding air, causing it sink, which creates clear weather. I won't even get into the density of warm v. cold molecules in a column of air. Scientifically, L is red and H is blue. Your colors are backwards and lead inaccurate understanding based upon the greater scientific community. It's the main reason I did not use this video with my classes during this time of distance learning.
Wow, I feel like this is the classic education style that has led the world astray. Listing everything out, BUT EXPLAINING NOTHING. No how and why... Just what. Very frustrating.
The Only Jamie Bourgeois just copy paste
It’s like they just wrote some 2page paragraph and then just pulled themselves together to read it all out...
who else here is for a school assignment?
This one is important lesson on science class
No it is not
Thought my geography teacher was bad
Oh No no ikr
I mean mine in worse...
Im here for my aviation grounds exam for meteorology
Wah achha video bataaya hai
keep up the good work
Wait, so in a hurricane if the pressure keeps dropping a lot, its a bad sign of catastrophic damages? Is that what you tried to tell us? That part confuses me. Or is it the other way? Pressure increases=super super damage??? Or my first statement?
The lower the pressure the most intense a low can get
I am watching this for geography
Who's doing science work
1:10 This statement about air masses forming over water being humid and air masses forming over land being dry sounds intuitive, but I think it's actually incorrect. The prevailing winds pretty much everywhere in the world are West to East, due to the rotation of the planet and the Coriolis Effect. So if what this video says is true, then you'd expect California to be humid and the East Coast to be dry, since California is getting air blown in from the Pacific Ocean and the East Coast is getting air blown in from over the North American continent. However, this is obviously false -- the East Coast is known for being humid and California is known for being dry.
I think the correct conclusion is that air masses over the ocean are cooled down because the water temperature is much colder than the land temperature. Since cold air can't hold much water, air that blows in off the ocean is generally *dry*, not humid. Conversely, air masses over the land are much warmer and therefore much wetter, resulting in humidity. As such, you should expect that the west coasts of pretty much every continent should be less humid than the east coasts, and as far as I'm aware this is exactly what we see.
i found out that my phone actually has a barometer installed and now i'm learning about this so i can predict the weather in the short term
I'm even more confused now. Information overload. 😆
Yall' here for Geography? SMH, I'm here for Science
This is a joke, but seriously, Science is pretty confusing-
I'm here for science-

Omg I can’t even start at how many wrong things there are. A tropical depression is the EARLIEST stage of a tropical cyclone, so don’t call it a typhoon. Every area of formation for tropical cyclones was wrong. The Australian and South Pacific areas you said are not even close to where they form, the area u showed “Willy-willies” is an area that has probably seen less than 10 tropical cyclones in earths history. Not to mention how far south you indicated they form (New Zealand really ? water temps barely scrape 70, not to mention interference like wind shear. Then for the height of a “tropical depression” ( I cannot get over that) you just stick up a picture of a tornado. Seriously rethink your information
They are not called Willy-Willy anymore. The weather bureau calls them tropical cyclone.
Thanks for pointing out the misinformation! Guess l have to find another video to study from😅
Watching this right now because of a heatwave over the Pacific Northwest
tysm!!
Uh I have to write a paragraph about this. Can someone give me a quick summary 😭
no
I feel so bad for you. We are learning about whether and my teacher assigned this vidio to watch.
@Joshua Liu if you were in her place you would also probably want help.
no, do it yourself. It's better doing it yourself
I’m here in quarantine dose get boring
Me watching this for school
I'm Australian and I've never heard of a cyclone called a willie-willie
You know what I'm gonna stick with hot wind (high pressure) and cold wind( low pressure)

Good video
Atmospheric pressure increases sound decreases, motion sickness?
Dude your just talking about Air masses. I came here to learn about Air PRESSURE
My geo teacher thinks I’m gonna watch this lol
A willy-willy is NOT a cyclone but a whirlwind or dust storm in Australia but a cyclone is called a cyclone like in the Indian Ocean.
Interesting. I just got a weather station that measures pressure. It gives me different options to read the numbers. Wish should I go for..?

if wind causes wind, then what causes wind to begin with?
I believe wind is caused by a temperature differential.
wind is caused by temperature differences

why you are talking about korea
I think it's because EBS(the channel) is Korean education chanel
Why not? It's as good an example as any. Or does it have to be based on where you are from to be relevant?
Bc it's best and it's a Korean channel
Hol up
Wow
What is cyclone?
Nabaraj Baral *watched a video of ‘whats cyclone’*
“korea, a place in asia” no shit
what?
Hey are you from South Korea or north Korea.
whether weather is understandable
k climate is already formed and this air pressure changes it, gud
so low air pressure does not cause rain but it depends where it began right
what
Hi I am a Korean. Why did you not divide Korea
which was smooth invisible vaporization
First i was curious about wind... Weather.... Now i am confused!
i dont even gwt this and jm jn gojng to go

Wow! That really explained it well.....NOT!! Trump could do better ....
Does Trump even understand the meaning of wind - 😹
A willy willy is a tiny tornado.
" air has not color and no smell "
Then how do you smell and sometimes feel farts?
There are chemical substance in farts which makes it smells

Did anyone learn anything about anything with this video? No wonder it has almost amounting to “zero” views considering how long it has been On and still doesn’t figure in search “unless it is a recommended video” if you are really, really searching.
I want to know how warm air leads to low pressure area
no, warm air is less dense and it moves up so it causes low air pressure but if the land near u is also is warm then the area where u are still being has high pressure just my point of view but really we all need to understand more about climate
