This is not a pseudoscience or science fiction question.

Is it true that some people can use their bodies to tell it's about to rain - air pressure tends to increase before a storm, which can be sensed in one's eardrums, is that true?

I've heard jokes that the corns in your feet will feel different if it's going to rain - any comment on this?

Are there other ways people can really sense upcoming weather?

Being able to smell rain not long before it does rain. I would think most people can.

When it goes below 4" I know it's getting cold.

If I all of a sudden have the overwhelming urge to fart, I know it's probably hot outside.

The only thing I can sense is when a thunderstorm is brewing that's all.

The air pressure part is plausible. You might sense it to an extent.

I often get headaches if we have long periods of low pressure.

I can sense weather change i can sense the coming of early winter or spring. It litterally is a smell. But i am also highly tuned to other things i sense ill health and death. And sometimes i can sense a supernatural cause. After research i consider myself clairsenstouis which is like a type of clairvoyancy but with senses its basically just a very hightened senses.
