Science 101: Does the Weather Affect Your Body?
Robertson, Bill
Science and Children, v54 n7 p62-65 Mar 2017
Everyone has an aunt or grandfather or other relative who can tell when the weather is changing because his or her joints start to ache or an old injury begins to hurt. This column provides background science information for elementary teachers. This month's issue focuses on three major weather factors and how they affect the human body--temperature, humidity, and air pressure.
