So who's got them?
I broke my leg on my first birthday. It starts to ache every time it's going to snow...it's bothering me right now, so I looked up the weather:
Tonight: Mostly cloudy skies this evening. A few snow showers developing late. Low 31F. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 30%.
Tomorrow: Some rain and snow throughout the day. High near 40F. Winds N at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of precip 30%.
I love it when I don't even have to turn on the TV to get my weather!

I can predict a 15-20 minute range of the exact minute it's going to start raining based on the severity of the headache that I get. When the pressure starts changing, meaning a storm is coming, my head starts throbbing. The more it hurts, the sooner the rain. I once said to a coworker at 2:30 that it was going to start raining at 5:12...as we were walking to our cars, it started raining at 5:14.
I'm like a human Barometer!

Broken knee cap, broken femur, yeah, the femur doesn't bother me so much, but the knee cap, luckily where i live now we hardly get any weather here.

Same here. Comes in handy being a weather nerd. :cool:
I'd mention the joint pain, but for me it's pretty much "Hmm, my knee hurts, that means I'm still alive!" Chronic Joint Pain is fail.

No. But I do somehow know when it's raining/wet outside in the morning. It's always harder than usual to get out of bed. I'm the type of person that can't sleep with light, so we have black curtains. So it's not like it being dark outside gives it away. Half the time I can't hear the rain sounds either.

I fell out of the back of a moving truck when I was in high school (don't worry, nothing illegal was going on while this happened:cool:) and f-ed up my index finger pretty good. (I actually had to have it mostly reattached right at the knuckle)
Years later, it's completely fine....except when a storm is moving in, I can barely bend that joint to 90 degrees OR completely straighten it without pain.
Yeah, Mailboxes = 1 / Me = 0
