The highest adjusted-to-sea-level barometric pressure ever recorded (below 750 meters) was at Agata, Evenkiyskiy, Russia, elevation: 261 m (856.3 ft)) on 31 December 1968 of 1083.3 hectopascals (hPa) (31.99
Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [1] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.

However, with a barometric pressure of 895 mbar (hPa; 26.43 inHg), Rita is the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in the Gulf of Mexico. [64] In between Rita and Katrina is Hurricane Allen. Allen's pressure was measured at 899 mbar. Hurricane Camille is the sixth strongest hurricane on record.
This was also its landfalling pressure; the only hurricane to hit the United States with a lower pressure at landfall was the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. [7] [46] A reconnaissance flight indicated a pressure of 901 millibars (26.6 inHg), [47] but this pressure was later corrected in 1969 by researchers to 919 mb (27.14 inHg). [7]
A high pressure from MeteoSwiss: 16 January 1882 at Zürichberg 1047 hPa. [268] 27 December 2016 during the high pressure Yörn Bischofszell reported a QFF value of 1048.3 hPa. [269] [270] With the weather station at Zürichberg reporting its highest ever value since the station was established in 1949. [271]
Whitewater State Park: Root River: Highest flood stage [20] 18.75 ft: August 19, 2007: Houston: Red River of the North: Highest flood stage [21] 40.82 ft: March 28, 2009: Moorhead: Highest flood stage [22] 54.35 ft: April 22, 1997: East Grand Forks: Minnesota River: Highest flood stage [23] 23.90 ft: April 6, 1997: Montevideo: Highest flood ...
The 956.0 mb (28.23 inHg) barometric pressure measurement recorded in Mount Clemens, Michigan, was the third-lowest non-tropical atmospheric pressure recorded in the mainland United States [6] and the lowest in the Central United States. [2] The lowest confirmed pressure for a non-tropical system in the continental United States had been set by ...
It resulted in heavy damage due to the high winds and produced record low pressure readings. [1] The lowest confirmed barometric pressure reading, 955.0 mb (28.20 inHg), for a non-tropical system in the continental United States (CONUS) was recorded during this storm at Canton, New York.
