Why does my back starting hurting more when the weather is damp?

I suffer from back pain but when the weather starts to get damp like tonight my back pain seems to get worse?

Is this all in my head or can dampness really cause back pain to get worse?

The difference in air pressure affects the nerves in your back and spine and that's what usually causes your back and other parts of your body to hurt more when the weather is damp.
