I feel like I've become a human fucking barometer and it sucks, but I tell you, this is not normal. You don't want to believe it, fine but go look at all the goddamned storms. They just keep coming one after another. I'm in Texas, we never had so many storms like we are now. I feel them. It used to be maybe a day a month that was bad but it's been almost never ending. Back to back to back.

I'm 40. Maybe if you mean more than 22 years ago that's outside my scope.

Not to downplay, but perhaps it's not everywhere else. Perhaps it's you. I am sensitive to them too, if it helps.

The nice thing is that you can check barometric data. It's been recorded for a long while now...

Possibly. I have a barometric app, my phone has a sensor that records it. It's interesting watching it on a plane when descending or ascending. For whatever reason, that doesn't hurt. Might have something to do with being in a pressurized cabin.
