Question

What generally happens to atomospheric pressure on a windy day?

Answer 1

The pressure lowers and I think it results in rain sometimes. I'm not sure. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

High winds are usually associated with Cold Front Passage.  That would be a high pressure area following a warm or low pressure area.  

The general rule is, Cold front: Clear skies, wind, colder temperatures and less humidity.  Warm Front: Cloudy skies, little wind, higher temperatures, higher humidity and the possibility of precipitation.

Answer 3

Pressure can be rising, too, not just falling. I have seen plenty of strong, northerly winds after a cold front passed through. That cold air advection can be brutal.

Windy (nonconvective winds) indicates a rapid change in pressure either way.
