Feeling it in His Scar

Most people tune into the Weather Channel with its high tech radars and myriad of meteorologists to get their weather news ...


We have something much more reliable in our house....
Spencer's scar from his central line. 

Although he likes to tell people it's his bullet wound, in actuality the scar has quite a knack for predicting the arrival of big storms. 

About a day before a storm rolls through, his scar starts aching.  It doesn't ache any other time and since we don't have a working tv in the house, often his aching scar is our first hint that bad weather is coming.  I don't know if it has something to do with the barometric pressure or some other weather factor that changes before a storm, but just like someone who says that they can feel it in their bones....

Spencer feels it in his scar. 
And for the record...yes, his scar was totally aching last night and this morning.

  4. What a gift! Only wish his scar had the power to divert some of wet weather in our direction. It is so dry out here in the west. But, it has cooled down significantly and our nightly temps have been down in the 40's and low 50's. Perfect sleeping weather. Thankfully!

  5. That is crazy! It's like Harry Potter sensing some foreboding moment with Voldemort. I wonder if this gets out if meteorologists will want to hire him! Or hire his scar :)
