Does weather affect headaches?

I notice that I seem to get more headaches during the summer time. Could this be because of changes in the weather?

Headaches and migraines are triggered by different things, depending on the individual. In some people, however, weather can definitely induce headaches. Bright sunshine and hot, humid conditions, in particular, can bring on migraines, which might explain why you're experiencing more of them during the summer. Drastic changes in barometric pressure can also trigger headaches for some people.
