A line on a weather map connecting points with the same air pressure
Real World Example
Imagine trying to find a group of friends in a crowded park where everyone is scattered, but they're all playing the same song on their phones. Similarly, an isobar on a weather map connects different locations that share the same air pressure, much like finding those friends by following the sound of the same song. Just as you would navigate through the park by listening for that specific tune, meteorologists use isobars to navigate weather patterns by connecting points of equal atmospheric pressure.
