In 1877, S.Weir Mitchell, a Philadelphia doctor wrote an article in the prestigious American Journal of Medical Sciences on "The Relation of Pain to Weather". The article related the onset and degree of pain recorded in a log by a Union Captain, whose leg had been amputated after a Civil War injury, to local weather conditions. He observed that the pain began as pressures fell and humidity and temperatures rose, conditions usually associated with an approaching storm. He noted the pain continued until the pressures began to rise and humidities began to fall as the storm departed.\n\nSeventy years later in Germany, another very similar study confirmed this relationship and really kick-started a new science, called Biometeorology. Formed from the two Greek words "bios" meaning life and meteoros meaning "the study of phenomena up above (thus weather phenomena in the atmosphere)". The new science studied the effect of weather on life (health).\n\nThis time the two players were Otto Hollich, a PhD student at the University of Hamburg and Claus Thurkow, a German soldier. Claus had lost an arm in 1945 after heavy shrapnel injury suffered in World War II. He kept a detailed daily log of the onset, degree and duration of pain for five years while the meteorology student tracked the daily weather. The meteorology student used more sophisticated statistical methods than the earlier study but the results were very much the same. He noted that the pain began when pressure fell and humidities rose, the first sign of an approaching storm. The research showed the pain continued until the storm and cold front finally passed, pressures began to rise and temperatures and humidities began to fall.\n\nFigure 1\n\n(click here for larger image) \nThe pain and weather relationship has since been established beyond reasonable doubt from further controlled studies. After that study, much additional research in both the US and abroad has since established relationships between many ailments and weather conditions. The Germans have taken a world lead in this new discipline. The German meteorological service for years now have provided daily advice and advisories to hospitals, doctors and clinics in Germany on which ailments are likely to be aggravated due to expected weather conditions.\n\nIn this country, the principle proponent of the science of Biometeorology was the late Helmut Landsberg, Professor at the University of Maryland and the father of modern Climatology. He catalogued many ailments and their weather connection in the landmark book "Weather and Health, An Introduction to Biometeorology

Wow... CoOoLs!   I was born on Nov 24th too. \nIt's cool answering a question from a fellow November-twenty-fourther!\n\nSo how do you like our month? I think it's ok although it's usually too cold outside but that's pretty obvious. I mean the month is named NovemBURR.\nThe only thing that sometimes ticks me off about my birthday being in Nov is that moms, dads and sis' birthday is all in May... I wonder what went wrong with me... Oh well, at least my HALF birthday is in May.\n\nNOVEMBER RAWKS!!!!!

I know, it is very weird. Here, in October, it snowed, but in November it is around 50 degrees.\n\nI once saw this bookmark when I was younger and it said that in the future it would be cold in July and hot in December. I believe it will be right...

With the longer daylight, people, including myself get out more especially in the evening. It's very hot where I am but everyplace has air conditioning. There's also a lot of outdoor activities at the local lakes and river. More fun in the summer!

It's November right now in Boston and 40 degrees.  Its cold and its gonna a lot colder until around March when it will (hopefully) start to warm up.  The weather fluctuates all the time so you can never really be sure what the temperature will be.

Usually if you have 82 degrees in November, you usually have a big cold outbreak in december.  I think you mean can anybody change the weather for you?  I think 82 degrees is a little on the warm side so i am with you.  Just  hang in there.  Cooler weather should be on it's way.

I just like warm temperatures! I've grown up with them and I've never liked snow! Snow is such a hastle. With warm temperatures you can go out and play golf on Christmas and if it's snowing U have to stay indoors. For example, here in california we were able to see elephant seals mating because it's warn and we're on the northern hemisphere.\nSo..I want/am having a winter filled with warm temperatures.

Here in Canada the bikes are put up for the season since snow is around. Fall is only now getting cool which is unusual for us.Normally we would be under a foot of snow, but not yet. We normally clean the house Saturdays, and on sundays relax, walk the dog, have a drink by the fireplace, welcome friends who drop over and perhaps watch a movie all curled up together. Can`t wait for the snow so snowmen and snow forts can be built. We love tons of snow...hopefully we will see some soon...hey gotta have a white christmas right.
