Why pressure in Los Angeles barely moves
Most of the year Los Angeles sits under the edge of the Pacific high, so day-to-day changes are small and the morning marine layer is a bigger weather story than the barometer. The notable exception is fall and winter: when high pressure builds over the Great Basin, the gradient toward the coast drives the dry, gusty Santa Ana winds.
Sea level or barometer: 29.93 inHg and 29.63 inHg in Los Angeles
The model point for Los Angeles is at about 290 ft, so here the two numbers are close. Pressure drops by about 0.1 inHg every 90 feet of height.
In the Weather24 app you choose which one to see under “Pressure reference”: Local, the default, shows a value close to a barometer’s; Sea level shows the forecast value used on this page.
Pressure swings in Los Angeles and how you feel
Weather-sensitive people usually notice changes in pressure — especially a fast fall ahead of a front — more than the value itself. That is why it helps to watch the change over the last 3 hours and the last 24.
