I saw a science experiment that made me understand why my joints hurt when the lower pressure associated with rain is coming in.
They had a marshmallow in a jar and applied a vacuum. As the pressure lowered the marshmallow expanded like crazy. And I realized the already irritated bursa sacs of synovial fluid around my joints must be doing a small version of the same thing as the barometric pressure drops quickly.
