Are high pressure systems always associated with good weather (and vice versa)? Can you predict temperature through seeing high/low pressure systems?

Answer 1

It depends where you are in the world, but generally pressure is not a good predictor of temperature specifically. For example if high pressure means fewer clouds then in winter that means more heat lost to space at night, so colder mornings.
