Barogram

/ˈbærəɡræm/ noun

Definition

A continuous written record of atmospheric pressure changes over time, produced by a barograph instrument.

Etymology

From 'baro-' (pressure) + '-gram' (a recording or written record, from Greek 'graphia'). The term describes the actual paper trace that a barograph produces.

Kelly Says

A barogram is like a weather forecast written by nature itself—each wiggle and dip on the paper literally represents pressure changes that created the storms, wind, and clear skies you experienced!
