Double-barrelled low pressure system. Ideally a low pressure system will have one distinct center where the surface pressure and height aloft are lowest at one point. Often though[,] the low pressure system will be a broad area of lower pressure or it will have two distinct areas where the surface pressure is lowest. The term double-barrelled low pressure system means two side by side low pressure systems.
