Hopefully this video helps your written exam go from high pressure to low pressure. 😉
-
As a high school student u explained this topic much nicer than my teacher !! ur also helping school students 😅😅
-
Why are free videos on YouTube 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!
-
Such a short video that filled a large gap in my knowledge!
-
Best illustration of the Coriolis effect I've ever seen, High Five Greg!

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?

Nice! I learned so much in a few minutes, thank you!
-
Videos are always fire 🔥 The production team is amazing
-
Wow the visuals of this video finally made weather crystal clear for me! I may consider studying with you guys if he is teaching the class. Thanks for the great video!
-
Now I get why the reference point is moving up and down over the course of high and low pressure this video is very helpful
-
Incredible video editing and great content, thank you!
-
Didn’t understand it while studying to be a flight dispatcher/atc, thanks for the explanation!
-
Great and well-crafted video! keep them coming.
-
Thanks for this video. It would immensely helpful for me to correlate theory with practical applications.
-
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.
-
Love It! Thanks as always
-
Awesome Video! Thanks for this!!
-
Thank you so much for this video. I've been struggling to visualize what high and low pressure systems look like and their affect on the weather. I kept confusing them with fronts.
-
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.

Only 10% of aviation accidents are due to weather? I expected most to be due to weather!
