Low Barometric Pressure Causing Headaches

Submitted by Anita on Thu, 01/21/2010 - 3:15pm

The lowest barometric pressure recorded since they started recording in the 1800's was in 1916. Until today!  Benicia's barometric pressure is at 28.806 and dropping.  This is caused by thousands of miles of unstable cold air being slammed into the Bay Area from the Gulf of Alaska.  Everything is cold and wet and leaking and flooding.

And now there is a secondary effect.  It is causing headaches, sinus conditions, and aching joints.  You may not be getting sick, it may be the low pressure.

Hang in there, it has to spin out of here sometime, hopefully Saturday.
