Objective Barometric pressure has been reported as a triggering and exacerbating factor in migraine headaches, although there are few reports concerning the association of weather change and migraine headache. The relationship between barometric pressure changes and migraine headaches was prospectively examined. Methods A total of 28 migraine patients who lived within 10 km of the Utsunomiya Local Meteorological Observatory kept a headache diary throughout the year. Daily and monthly mean barometric pressure data of the Utsunomiya Local Meteorological Observatory were obtained via the homepage of the Meteorological Office. Results The correlation between headache frequency obtained by the headache diaries for 1 year and changes in the barometric pressure during the period of 2 days before and 2 days after the headache onset were evaluated. The frequency of migraine increased when the difference in barometric pressure from the day the headache occurred to the day after was lower by more than 5 hPa, and decreased when the difference in barometric pressure from the day the headache occurred to 2 days later was higher by more than 5 hPa. Of 28 patients, weather change was associated with migraine headache development in 18 (64%) patients, 14 of which reported low barometric pressure to be a cause of headache. There was no association between the monthly mean barometric pressure and headache frequency throughout the year. Conclusion Barometric pressure change can be one of the exacerbating factors of migraine headaches.

Sending best wishes to all the many other migraineurs in the UK this week who are not needing a weather forecast or barometer to know that storms are in the air #WeatherTrigger #WeatherBomb #AirPressureDrop #StormDudley #StormEunice #migraine #KeepSafe https://t.co/2X6Ik9CZRy
@drhannahshort hope you are feeling better. Interesting paper about #barometricpressure & #migraine. You are not alone. https://t.co/4oCFnkQL4w
@micek_flicek 大変気になるのでpubmedで論文探しはじめてしまったでござる。ぱっと見、可能性があるっていう報告が1940年くらいからあるんだけど double blind でやってるのはないなあ。割と興味深いのはこれ https://t.co/XVE8Y2f8kk
