When it's gonna rain or snow, I get a migraine! - Headaches & Migraines Message Board

Hi Guys! I thought this might help some of you out there. It's kind of weird, and maybe it's just all in my head

but there's no other explanation.

About 2 days before it's about to rain or snow, I get a headache until the rain or snow actually comes down - then it goes away. Maybe it's something to do with air pressure systems, but it's like clockwork. So if you ever need to know about the weather, gimme a call!

This doesn't solve anyone's headache problems, but at least it might help you find out why you're having headaches - so next time you have a headache, check the weather forecast or wait and see if it rains or snows.

Barametric pressure changes if a common cause for headaches in lots of people. There is nothing at all unusual about that. When I had severe sinusitis before I could always tell when a weather change was coming d/t the change in barametric pressure causing a sinus headache for me.

whenever a storm front comes in weather it be snow or rain the change in the barometric pressure kills me. I suffer from migraines and I get the worst possible ha at this time. I can also feel it in my knee that has arthritis so I can relate to what you are saying.

WOW! I thought I was the only NUT out here to get this type of HA! It looks as though I have company. I suffer from the same thing.

I also get headaches which are pretty bad when the weather changes. There's a storm coming here and my head is pounding already. I'll be glad when the storm comes and goes -- maybe my head will get better then.
I thought I was the only barometer around!
