Buys ballots Law
Buys Ballots law,the relation ofwind
directionwith the horizontal pressure distribution
named for the Dutch meteorologistC.H.D. Buys
Ballot, who first stated it in 1857. The
relationship states that in the Northern
Hemisphere a person who stands facing away
from thewindhas high pressure on the right and
low pressure on the left; in the Southern
Hemisphere, the reverse would be true.

Buys ballots Law
Theoretically, the relationship states that the
angle between thewindand thepressure
gradientis a right angle. This is almost exactly
true in the free atmosphere, but not near the
surface. Near the ground, the angle is usually
less than 90 because of friction between the air
and the surface and the turning of the wind
toward areas of lower atmospheric pressure at
the same altitude.

Caution when applying Buys Ballot's Law
1. Near the equator: Buys Ballot's law should
not be
applied within a few degrees of the equator. This
is
because Coriolis force is negligible at the
equator and
therefore the winds blow directly across the
isobars
from HP to LP areas.
2. In the vicinity of land: The wind
experienced may
not be the free unobstructed wind.
