Abstract
Records from sensitive microbarovariographs installed at Palisades, N. Y., Columbia University in New York City, U. S. Merchant Marine Academy, Kings Point, L. I. have been studied in connection with synoptic and local weather data. A number of interesting pressure events have been noted in connection with the passage of certain synoptic situations, These include pressure pump lines, squall lines, cold fronts and thunderstorms. Low level turbulence or convection associated with certain air masses at certain times is well-recorded by short-period pressure variations. Conclusions regarding the origin of squall lines are drawn from the empirical evidence given.
