Abstract
Methods and model equations are provided for predicting a risk of a subject who experiences adverse medical events associated with the weather, of experiencing a new-onset event. Methods include a) identifying a climate region of interest; b) collecting daily mean barometric pressure (BP) data for a time frame and dividing the days of the time frame into at least upper, middle and lower quantile BP days to identify the upper quantile BP days.
