Am I weather sensitive? A checklist for self-observation
This is not a test in the medical sense, just a checklist for observation. Mark when you feel worse and what you notice, and you get a list of what is worth writing down. There is no score here and no verdict that you are weather sensitive.
What is worth watching
Mark at least one condition and a list of what to watch will appear.
This is not a test or a diagnosis: the list suggests what to record so you can check the link against your own data.
Why "I feel worse with the weather" is a reason to record, not a conclusion
Plenty of people feel that weather affects how they feel, and the feeling deserves neither ridicule nor blind trust. The catch is that memory is selective. A headache on a stormy day gets filed as evidence, a headache on a clear day is forgotten, and a clear day with no headache is never counted at all.
So a feeling proves nothing, but it does not rule anything out either. It is a hypothesis, and you test it with a record, not an argument. How these memory errors work, and what is known about weather and wellbeing, is covered in Weather sensitivity: what the science actually says.
How to use the list
Mark the conditions when you usually feel worse and the symptoms you notice. For each condition the checklist names a weather reading worth comparing with your entries, plus a link to an article on what is known about it.
Then you need entries, good days and misses alike. The MeteoHealth app keeps a wellbeing diary and compares it with outdoor pressure, temperature, humidity, wind and UV index, as well as the change in pressure and temperature over the day. It does not measure indoor air. If symptoms are strong, getting worse or unusual for you, see a doctor: a checklist is no substitute.
