Pressure and weather in Leland
Leland sits on the west bank of the Cape Fear River just outside Wilmington, close enough to the Atlantic that coastal systems arrive with little warning. Hurricanes and tropical storms tracking up the Carolina coast produce the deepest and longest barometric pressure declines of the year here, while winter nor'easters and coastal lows bring their own sustained drops. Summer adds the sea breeze thunderstorm pattern, with quick dips in the air pressure today most afternoons. Many residents notice barometric pressure headaches in the days before a coastal system arrives, and a barometric pressure forecast for Leland shows when the current barometric pressure is about to fall.
