Pressure and weather in Courtenay

Courtenay sits in the Comox Valley on the east coast of Vancouver Island, where a mild maritime climate is shaped by a steady procession of Pacific weather systems. Through the wet winter months, one low-pressure system after another sweeps in off the ocean, dropping current barometric pressure as it arrives and lifting it again as it clears — sometimes several times in a week. The Island's mountains can sharpen these changes for valley communities like Courtenay. Weather-sensitive residents often feel barometric pressure headaches when the air pressure today falls quickly ahead of a storm. A barometric pressure forecast for Courtenay helps you plan around weather migraine days.
