Answer:

Specifically, the horizontal flow tends to be parallel to the isobars and height contours in the direction where, in the Northern Hemisphere, the lower pressure (or height) is to the left facing in the direction of the flow and the higher pressure (or height) is to the right.

Specifically, the horizontal flow tends to be parallel to the isobars and height contours in the direction where, in the Northern Hemisphere, the lower pressure (or height) is to the left facing in the direction of the flow and the higher pressure (or height) is to the right.

Closely spaced isobars indicate large pressure changes over a small area, causing wind speeds to increase. Isobars also determine wind direction, with winds blowing clockwise around highs and counterclockwise around lows in the Northern Hemisphere.
