1. Falling air pressure causes pain in birds’ ears, so if birds are flying low to the ground it means a
thunderstorm is coming
2. Weather and air pressure
You can predict the weather by looking at your coffee. High air pressure is an indicator of
sunny weather, which will push the bubbles to the edge of your cup. Rain is likely if the
bubbles go towards the centre.
Rising air is associated with cloud formation and precipitation, whereas sinking air produces
clear sky.
If the air molecules move faster (higher pressure), they bump into each other harder and
more often. This happens when the temperature of air is increased. Warm air molecules
have more energy, so they move faster and create more pressure. Likewise, cold air has less
energy and therefore exerts less pressure on its surroundings.
