Sounds like we get the same sort of ones Gala. Those first two sentences are right on the button for mine. A bit different after that.
Sounds like chinooks are a really common trigger. I hear a lot of people complain about them, including my mother. It's funny cause I've heard doctors say there is no real reason for that. However, they're still learning about migraines (and the brain obviously) as I mentioned so who the heck knows. Not to mention very few places in the world experience the weather phenomenon we call chinooks, so there's probably very little research on it. Personally I believe the anecdotal evidence, though I will admit, I think a lot of people complain about migraines really just have bad headaches, and blame chinooks cause they hear others blame chinooks. Much like people and gluten. Yes some have Celiac disease or Crohn's, but the amount of people that whine about gluten is maddening.
This is not to say anyone here in the migraine thread is misdiagnosing their migraines at all. Just an observation on society, and why it's sometimes hard for people with the actual problem to get reliable help.
