Under pressure! We got some new all-time surface pressure records. Weather record keeping is extensive in the United States. It goes well beyond high / low temperatures, rain, snow, etc. Surface pressure has also been recorded for a long time.

The Lower Ohio River Valley recently opened the record books on Friday, March 3rd. They dusted off the previous records that were in some cases over 100 years old, then wrote in some new all-time surface pressure records.

The barometer dropped to numbers never before recorded for the following locations: Paducah, KY (PAH), Louisville, KY (SDF), Bowling Green, KY (BWG), Evansville, IN (EVV), and Terre Haute, IN (HUF).
