How to View Isobar Maps
Isobar maps are a great way to visualize low-pressure and frontal activity. Instead of adding labels directly to each pressure contour, which can make the map look cluttered, we’ve designed a more interactive solution. Move your mouse over the map (or tap on a touch screen), and a data pop-up box will appear with the relevant information.
TO VIEW THE ISOBAR MAP:
To view the Isobar map, follow these steps:
Click on the 'Forecast Options' box at the top right of the page
Select Isobar
Isobar maps include a rain overlay to track low pressure and frontal activity on the map easily.
SELECT FEATHERS OR WIND ARROWS
You can change the map display box from streamlines to wind feathers or arrows. These two display options show the isobar lines on any map. With this feature, you can easily track low or high-pressure systems on the map, making it easier to plan your day and stay informed about weather conditions in your area.
