It has generally been believed that the pressure rise is the only type or pressure change which can occur with the passage of a thunderstorm and that this rise is invariably accompanied with a fall in Dry Bulb temperature. Evidence has been brought forth to show that this is not always the case and that in addition to instances of thunderstorms with pressure rise, there are also cases of thunderstorms accompanied by no pressure change or even a pressure fall. It is also observed that these pressure variations are not always associated with a temperature fall, but are in some cases, also accompanied by arise in Dry Bulb or no appreciable change in Dry Bulb.
A review of the present explanations of pressure changes in thunderstorms is given and it is shown how these are inadequate to explain all the observed facts.
