Referring to the synoptic model of Station 2, which pattern best describes how the atmospheric pressure has evolved during the last three hours?
Refer to figures.
The pressure tendency on a synoptic plot is composed of two pieces of information placed to the right of the station circle: the pressure change value (in tenths of hPa, encoded on two digits) and the characteristic symbol plotted immediately next to. The characteristic symbol is a standardised pictogram that describes the evolution of the pressure over the last three hours.
At Station 2, the characteristic symbol plotted next to the pressure change value is a shape that first falls and then becomes horizontal, corresponding to the code "falling then steady". The net pressure change shown (15) in tenths of hPa gives a 1.5 hPa overall decrease, consistent with a falling then steady evolution.
