I'm not sure there's a good way to describe that feeling.... sort of like there's not quite enough oxygen around. Anyway, it's not unusual for it to feel that way before you see any storm clouds.

Not the same feeling as humid. It's also oppressive, but there's a spooky edge to it. n/t winter is coming May 2013 #13

Huh, actually it does. HappyMe May 2013 #9

Instead of a battery-powered one, get a hand-crank model. winter is coming May 2013 #12
