OK Here is a little meterologic info for ya. The atmosphere is heavy, High pressure means clear skys. You get low presure when something comes between you and the atmosphere. In almost every case this is a cloud. Clouds varry in mass, size and altitude. Diffrent clouds bring diffrent weather. So when your Suunto tells you that the pressure is dropping, look up if you see nothing, something is on the way (or you gained altitude).
