Bermuda High

Bermuda High is a term in meteorology for an area of high pressure over Bermuda that steers many systems of storms. It is a semipermanent area. The pressure is built up in summer which steers the storms usually westward across the Atlantic. However, during summer 2004 and 2005, the Bermuda High expanded to the south and west, which steered hurricanes into the Gulf of Mexico rather than up the east coast or curving out to sea.
