1. A high-pressure system means that the area has higher pressure than the surrounding areas.
2. We know that winds move away from areas with high pressure to areas with low pressure.
3. So if an area is going to be a high-pressure area then winds from that area will move away. Therefore fewer clouds will be present in that area.
- See in low-pressure areas air moves upwards, therefore, water vapors move upwards and clouds are formed, precipitation occurs.
- In a high-pressure area, the air is pushed down to the surface
