Air pressure also varies with temperature and time at a given place due to uneven heating of earth's surface, air pressure can change rapidly. At a hotter place, the warm air there is lighter than the cooler air in the surrounding regions. Hence air can rush in from high pressure surrounding area to this lower pressure area.This phenomenon can result in land breezes, winds and storms

The atmospheric pressure decrease with increasing altitude . ... Also, the temperature decrease as the altitude increase, this is because of expansion , as the hot air from ground rises up the volume of air increase this cause decrease in temperature and vice versa.
