    yes and no really. My headaches are, but migraine is not. Thunderstorms are a good headache trigger for me. I suppose hot weather does, but they seem alot more intense.

    My headaches do seem to have some weather component. In summer they are MUCH worse. Hot, humid days with impending storms make my head hurt all over. These headaches often will not resolve with Imitrex. I have found that the best cure for these is a good old fashioned slushy.

    I can say weather definitely affects my migraines. In fact, with my friends and family it is kind of a joke. Because they say I am better than listening to the weather man, since I alway get a migraine anywhere from one to three days before it rains or snows. So I would love to win this migraine barometer. Thank you for your time reading this and I hope to hear from you soon saying I am the winner. ;o)

    Yes I get weather influenced migraines. Haven’t found anything to help. The best thing I have found is anti-inflamatories.

    I firmly believe that the weather effects my migraines. I can feel the storm fronts and pressure changes before they happen.

    Whenever the weather changes drastically I tend to get a migraine. It’s really frustrating. Would love to have something like this to help me predict when an attack is going to happen

    Indeed, for me, the weather plays a very important and nasty role in my migraine headache, especially in the summer, when thunderstorms are more frequent. Almost no migraine in cool, dry temperatures.

    My husband suffers severely with change of barometric pressure. He has even been hospitalized once. His migraine woke him up out of a sound sleep and he was in so much pain he couldn’t take his rescue meds due to nausea and vomiting from the migraine. It was caused from a drastic change in barometric pressure, if he could known earlier and taken his meds it could have been prevented.

    I know I have migraines because of the weather. I can usually predict when a weather change is coming on a day or two in advance because of the pressure change in my head.

    I definitely feel that the weather is a HUGE factor in my migaine suffering. Humidity definitely is a trigger, but barometric changes are the worst… My husband is a pharmcist and some days he’ll come home from work to find me in excruciating pain and he’ll say, “I knew you’d have a migraine today because my three worst migraine customers all came in desperately needing their medicine.” It’s always on days when there’s been a swing in barometric pressure. Unfortunately when those types of migraines hit, pretty much NONE of my meds or my tried & true remedies work. I just have to ride it out, sometimes for a couple of days. :o(

    Weather has a huge impact on my migraines. When the barometric pressure is high or changes rapidly, my head gets really bad. Also storms and strong wind trigger me.

    I think that weather affects my migraines, but I haven’t been able to pinpoint what weather changes impact the migraines the most. It would be great to be able to have a tool to help me figure this out, and take action before “reaching the point of no return.”

    Weather is a trigger for my migraines, although I’m not sure which weather events trigger them. I’ve been trying to get better by journaling.

    Weather isn’t my only trigger though. Too much or too little caffeine, aspertame, sodium nitrate, msg….

    I got my first migraine when I was 4 after waking up from a nap, so I refused to take naps after that – much to my mother’s displeasure! Wasn’t diagnosed until I was 18. When I was 22, I started getting them every day. Four years later, I was down to 4 per week after finding out I had hypothyroidism. Now, I’m getting better – about 2 per week on average. It’s a continuing battle!

    Thank goodness other people are recognising weather migraines! Mine come with large barometric changes, up or down, and also with hot weather – I get low blood sugar ones, too, which probably exacerbate the hot weather ones as I don’t eat when it’s too hot. Makes it all a bit of a misery in summer, being allergic to strong UV as well. :s Ho hum. The change is just starting and I really hope I grow out of them the way I’ve grown into them. 🙁

    My worst triggers are weather related, and unfortunately mine seem.to be ANY change in barometric pressure, so it has to remain.rather steady over several days not. To present a problem. The most severe remains a sudden drop though, and I can always tell my by head or by my aura the intensity of an incoming storm. I could never live somewhere hurricane prone, and temperature drops get me as well.

    Ive been suffering with migraines all my life, in my younger years they were typically triggered by my menstrual cycle, or sometimes eating too much chocolate or cheese, even drinking lemonade would trigger one… but now days its all to do with the Low Pressure, i had a severe bout of migraines about a month or so back and my doctor gave me some pills called SUMATRIPTAN 50MG which in all honesty arent very effective, there is currently a Low Pressure system over the United Kingdom and im its victim yet again perhaps along with many more migraine sufferers!! im tired of these attacks because they literally floor me!! I want a quick fix that takes away all the violent symptoms and not just one or two symptoms… im so going to be buying one of those Migraine Barometers…… If any of you guys have any tips or advice that could help me in some miraculous way, it would be much aprieciated, Kind Regards Jade from Leicestershire UK
