A lot of things are going on right now, but one of them is that I saw the doctor and she recommended seeing what I could accomplish non-medically by, at least for a start, paying diligent attention to the weather forecast and proactively taking measures (okay, maybe not entirely non-medically, because one of the measures was being sure to stay extra-hydrated, but another one was to take a half dose of sudafed) when the barometer is falling, before it hits bottom, I mean, in the hope of my not hitting bottom when that happens. Because holy crap, do I not need more days like last Sunday. One of these times I'll be driving a car when a storm comes in, and my eyes will roll back in my head and none of us will enjoy it at all.
So I am here to recommend the Nav Clock app for your iDevice. (It doesn't appear that they have one for Android, but I bet it's just a matter of time.) This thing displays local time, GMT (Zulu time), date, sunrise, sunset, temperature in F and C, humidity, wind chill/heat index, dew point, wind speed, visibility, pressure, and - crucially! - pressure trending (steady, rising, falling, rapidly rising, rapidly falling).
Now if only I knew a way to get it to (a) play nice with my computer at work, where I can't bring my phone with me, and (b) send me a text or some other sort of alert when the pressure trend line went to "rapidly falling", I'd really be somewhere. I bet some programmer type person can make that happen for me.
