Which place has the lowest recorded barometric pressure on Earth?
Quick Answer
Typhoon Tip reached an estimated minimum sea-level pressure of 870 hPa in 1979, the lowest on record for a tropical cyclone.
The Full Story
The lowest sea-level pressure ever measured in a tropical cyclone was about 870 hPa in Typhoon Tip in 1979. Low pressure is a sign of an exceptionally intense storm system because air rises rapidly and winds spiral inward. Tip’s record low pressure helped confirm it as one of the most extreme storms ever observed. It remains a landmark case in tropical meteorology and hurricane science.
