The above image, which can be found at http://www.newmediastudio.org/DataDiscovery/Hurr_ ED_Center/Hurr_Structure_Energetics/Closed_Isobars/Closed_Isobars.html is an example of isobars forming closed circles around a low pressure system. The numbers indicate the dropping pressure as one nears the center of the low pressure area. This would be associated with rising air and higher likelihoods of precipitation.Friday, July 25, 2008
