High to Low: Down you Go

means that with a pressure fall over the flight, while you maintain the same altitude on a given pressure setting, will lead to a gradual descent as the flight progresses. So if you are approaching hills and a storm is coming, you could be a lot lower than you think if not flying VFR.
