Hope our weather is "clearer" in the coming days ahead here in eastern PA.
Take care,

Hello Kathy,

Isn't that strange? It seems to me, (that for me, anyway) the dropping pressure (storm front / low pressure approaching) causes me pain.
Then, as higher pressure approaches, (storm going to leave), I start to feel better.
It seems to me, although more folks would hafto take part in a poll, that the 'movement' of the barometer is where the pain is the worst. It's another thing that activates the sympathetic system, and that messes with us.

It looks like another nasty week here in the mud atlantic, everyone take care.
And, give a thought/prayer for those in NC who just lost everything due to the tornadoes.

Pete
