Explanation:

Step1: Identify the pressure graph

The graph labeled "Atmospheric Pressure" (with barometer reading in inches) is used to find pressure totals.

Step2: Locate the lowest point

On the atmospheric pressure curve, find the point with the lowest y - value (corresponding to lowest pressure). Then, check the x - axis (time) for that point. From the graph, the lowest pressure occurs around 6 PM on September 13 (or the time associated with the lowest barometer reading point on the pressure curve, which visually aligns with around 6 PM Sept 13 when checking the time markers: 6 PM, MDT, 6 AM, Noon, 6 PM, MDT, 6 AM, Noon; the lowest pressure point's x - coordinate is around 6 PM on September 13).

Answer:

Around 6 PM on September 13 (or the time corresponding to the lowest point on the atmospheric pressure curve, typically identified as 6 PM Sept 13 from the graph's time markers)
