Pressure and weather in North Haven
North Haven occupies the Quinnipiac River valley a few miles north of New Haven, close enough to Long Island Sound to feel the water's influence but set back from the immediate shoreline. That gives its barometric pressure a character of its own. Coastal storms in the cold season are the main event, and when a nor'easter comes up the seaboard the current barometric pressure falls steadily for many hours before bottoming out and climbing again, with North Haven often sitting near the boundary where rain turns to snow. The Sound keeps summer afternoons a little cooler than places farther inland, and the sea breeze pushing up the valley can trigger thunderstorms where it meets warmer air, giving short sharp dips. Between storms, fronts moving across southern New England provide the regular smaller swings. For residents who feel barometric pressure headaches, a barometric pressure forecast for North Haven shows when weather pressure is about to change and by how much.
