    Hopefully this video helps your written exam go from high pressure to low pressure. 😉

    Why are free videos on KZread made with so much better production quality than my actual ground school, which seems like it’s stuck in the early 2000s. Even though I passed my PPL meteo, pressure systems always kinda confused me. But seeing it in 3D like this makes it so much easier to understand!

    You forgot to mention, high pressure and low pressure are relative, especially to times of the year. Highest high pressure during the summer can be lower than the lowest low pressure during the winter.

    Can you explain why high-pressure systems are stable and low-pressure systems are unstable? Both, as you explain, cause a vertical movement of air. It seems that in a high-pressure system, air moving upward would cause winds coming in laterally to replace the upward-displaced air.

    POV yall are really kind n exercise a plethora of patience to explain n help others know n become interested in driving a plain, train, and/or automobile through a land where they've raised a family n couldn't afford to attend a class and take their family safely on vacation or maybe to come meet people like yourself. Good, caring, god-fearing, fellow Americans. Thank you. Maybe slow the presentation down a bit and add a little more examples and emphasis on news broadcast weather vs practical application. N for not so smart guys like myself. I'm gonna just rewind n take notes n then probably thank you n Whomever sent you. What's the ideal system to 'cast a line' in?

    So Low pressure day's for Freeflight gliders, paraglider's but PPG pilots typically wanting smoother air should aim for the High pressure day's. The mixed up thinking process going from sport to sport.

    _Something is wrong. Our atmosphere is floating in a vacuum, with nothing enveloping it, exerting different pressures at different altitudes. Try to obtain pressure in a pressure cooker without the lid on! It’s impossible._

    I thought Low pressure systems will give you clear skies, no precipitation. And high pressure systems will give you cloudy skies, and low visibility.

Neither is, an open atmosphere floating in a vacuum, without walls, lid or skin which avoid the air to escape into the vacuum of space, capable of generating pressure.
