The theory is that in periods of high air pressure you are more buoyant in the air than in low pressure.
A similar thing happens in water, which has much higher pressure than air, and tat is why people can float in water. You are more buoyant in water than air.
Salt water has more pressure than fresh water, so it's even easier to float in salt water than it is in fresh.
I read it in one of the science pages I visit.
You need to have a barometer and weigh yourself when it points to high
I believe if you climb on top of a high mountain you will weigh less because you are farther from the earth's center of gravity.
So perhaps I'll eat my bacon on K2
