You DO realize that this is a thread about weather related stuff?

I'm not sure if you are being mean or trying to be funny...

I have a feeling it will not matter much longer though...

Hi Tech! Hope you had a lovely Christmas

Ignorance is bliss.

I've only had migraines since I was 5 with chronic migraine having been diagnosed for me in college. I've worked with a neurologist who specializes in them for the past decade or so keeping a detailed journal ... so I think I know what my triggers are.

In a survey by the National Headache Foundation, headache sufferers were given a list of 16 possible triggers. They then were asked to rank them in terms of what commonly brought on their migraines and other headaches. Three out of every four respondents said that weather triggered their headache pain. Specific weather triggers include:
•Changes in humidity
•Changes in temperature
•Storms
•Extremely dry conditions
•Dusty environments

Listed below are common environmental triggers for headaches included in the survey and the percentage of people who identified them as triggers. People often have more than one type of trigger for their headaches. How many, if any, of these factors trigger your headaches?
•Weather or barometric pressure changes: 73%
•Intense odors: 64%
•Bright or flickering lights: 59%
•Smoke: 53%
•Extreme heat or cold: 38%
•Altitude changes: 31%
•High winds: 18%

All of the things I highlighted are happening. Of course, every person who suffers from migraine will differ on what sets them off exactly and in what combination. For some people, it's eating cheese or chocolate that's more of a problem. I happen to have issues with weather and light.

I'm an aviation weatherman....or was back in the 70's.......a Tornado in December is mandatory here in Dallas ....along with the transition season......" in the fine Texas Tradition "....my friends

What happens if these things meet up? Or do they just burn themselves out?

a reply to: beansidhe

Well, the discrete nature of the storms allows them to use the available instability in the atmosphere thus becoming very severe very quickly, they will converge along the cold front and form a squall line which will have less of a tornado threat and more of a damaging wind threat. i hope that answers your question

a reply to: beansidhe

There has to be a lot of building up before they can fill in that line. It can happen fairly quickly, but right now, they have a lot of time left as discreet cells it looks like.

Good to see you on the ball Technix.

I just sent your thread link to FissionSurplus since she is smack dab in the middle of this mess. Hopefully she will join in with reports from her area.

Thanks for all you do to keep people updated.

Thanks Tech!!!

I'm on the Texas / New Mexico line. It is 5:24 PM. The wind is really howling, going west into the low which is centered over New Mexico and is winding in this direction (east). It is cold, the wind chill is miserable, and we haven't even begun the party yet. This is all about snow up here...we're fixing to have quite a blizzard! I'll follow this thread off and on as long as we keep from losing power.

S & F!

I'm in the OKC area and we're getting hammered hard with wind and rain at the moment. Hopefully it will die down soon.
