also centered around Alabama, but still a really neat breakdown for, as he says, “human barometers“ 😁

By request for the human barometers
across the Southeast - potentially impactful pressure changes are ahead.
If you're one of
those people who can feel the weather changing before any clouds even arrive, pay attention to what's coming.
We're looking at some pretty significant swings in atmospheric pressure, especially Friday
through Sunday.
Tuesday and Wednesday: Relatively steady
pressure across the Southeast. For many weather-sensitive individuals, this should be a quieter stretch.
) Thursday: Pressure climbs before beginning to change direction. Some of you may start noticing those familiar symptoms.
• Friday: Here's when things get dynamic! Y Atmospheric pressure is forecast to plunge toward 1015 mb (29.96") around Dothan. That's the kind of change many of you have told me can coincide with migraine attacks, fibromyalgia flares, arthritis and joint pain, sinus pressure, dizziness and Ménière's symptoms.
Saturday into Sunday: Here comes the rebound! Pressure surges upward, potentially reaching around 1028 mb (30.34") by Sunday morning. That's : facebook.com ly 13 mb in less than two days!

While many of you report feeling worse when pressure FALLS, others say it's the rapid RISE that gets them. Some feel both.
By Monday and Tuesday, pressure begins easing again.
This is exactly why I've been paying so much attention to atmospheric pressure changes. Your comments have shown me just how many people live with weather sensitivity, often dealing with symptoms that others can't see. Of course, not everyone responds the same way and a pressure change doesn't guarantee symptoms. However, knowing when the bigger swings are in the forecast may help you plan ahead. See my previous post for predicted nationwide pressure anomaly maps.
Here's my question for all you human barometers: Which bothers you more - falling pressure, rising pressure or BOTH?
Plus, where are you checking in from? I'd love to hear how these changes affect you, as this is a community that can learn from each other.
(This forecast graphic is specifically for Dothan, Alabama, but the broader weather pattern will affect other parts of the Southeast, with timing and pressure changes varying by location.)

oh, cool, another one

FEELING THE WEATHER!? Heads up to some sharp changes in barometric pressure beginning today through Saturday across the entire region.
A powerful storm system and cold front will send abnormally low barometric pressure into the Great Lakes Region Friday. This will be followed by a sharp rise in barometric pressure Saturday.
Changes in weather, including barometric pressure, temperature, wind and humidity can all impact how we feel. Certain aches, pains, sinus pressure, headaches, arthritis and more can react and contribute to these discomforts. Are you feeling anything yet? Perhaps the sharp changes in the weather ahead are to blame!
