Some people get 'weather headaches' from changes in barometric pressure!

Have you ever wondered how you could cut out work a little early without your boss interviewing you? Just say you have a barometric pressure headache, also known as a weather headache! Changes in the pressure around certain people, as a result of changes in weather conditions, can lead to people suffering crippling headaches.

If you find yourself with a sudden throbbing headache as clouds begin to roll into the area you're in, you probably suffered from a barometric pressure headache. Barometric pressure sounds more scientific then it actually is, because it's really a fancy way of saying air pressure! The name 'barometric' comes from the instrument used to measure air pressure, a barometre! Some people get nosebleeds, and some people get severe, throbbing headaches.
