Question 1306Navigation General

The correct answer is C) low barometric pressure. Stormy weather is typically associated with regions of low barometric pressure. Low pressure systems create instability in the atmosphere, which leads to the formation of clouds, precipitation, and other severe weather conditions. As air masses converge towards areas of low pressure, they rise and cool, leading to the development of storm systems. In contrast, areas of high barometric pressure (option B) are generally associated with stable, fair weather. Steady barometric pressure (option A) does not necessarily indicate stormy conditions, as pressure can remain constant even as weather patterns change. Rapidly changing barometric pressure (option D) can also contribute to the formation of storms, but low pressure is the primary driver of stormy weather.
