Why does weather affect health?
Heat & Medications
Hot weather forces your body to work harder to stay cool. Many common medications — including diuretics, anticholinergics, and antidepressants — interfere with sweating or temperature regulation, putting you at higher risk of heat exhaustion.
UV & Sun Sensitivity
Dozens of common medications make your skin dramatically more sensitive to UV radiation — including antibiotics, diuretics, NSAIDs, and some antidepressants. This can cause severe sunburn in minutes, not hours.
Cold & Circulation
Cold temperatures cause blood vessels to constrict. For people with heart conditions, high blood pressure, or Raynaud's — and those taking beta blockers — this raises risk of cardiovascular events and painful extremity symptoms.
Humidity & Joint Pain
Changes in atmospheric moisture and pressure can cause joint tissues to swell slightly, increasing pain and stiffness in people with arthritis. Many patients report predictable flares before weather changes.
Air Quality & Breathing
Fine particles (PM2.5) from pollution, wildfires, and pollen can trigger asthma, COPD, and cardiac events. People with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions are especially vulnerable on high-AQI days.
Barometric Pressure & Migraines
Drops in barometric pressure are one of the most well-documented migraine triggers. As pressure falls — often before rain or storms — nerve endings in your head respond, triggering headache onset in susceptible people.
