I can predict when electrical storms are coming due to migraine - when there's no cloud or any hint of one coming. Near one hundred percent. Sometimes the odd one gets by me but most of 'em.
Well, it's not like I go out in public and see naked people. I don't. It's kind of like looking through a camera. If I WANT to see someone, I have to switch to a different lens and I can only see that person. Not everyone.
I think it's my brain forming pictures based on what it has seen in the past. I'm old now so I've seen everything from babies to old people naked. I also worked at an early age in a hospital where I would help/wash/bathe anyone from a baby to old people and even dead people. I have also been involved in horse breeding and dog shows, so looking at body form in different species has given me a critical eye to the physique. If I change the lens to my "camera" I see right through people's clothing, unless they wear a lot of bulky clothes. It's like my brain adds up everything it can see with the regular lense and then shows me a picture without the clothes.
Sometimes I can guess what number someone is going to say, before they say it. It's been a strange ability, and completely useless and not 100%. Noticed it with football games when the refs would call out the numbers and sometimes I could see the number before they said it.
I think I'd rather be able to see (some) people naked now that I think about it.

How early in advance? Could it be due to pressure change?

I think I know what you're talking about. Just a flash before it happens, but not early enough to benefit at a casino like Tony asked?
I've developed noxious gas as I've got older, almost lethal so I'm told!
It's starting to sound like we have a rival team to Mystery Men
Pervy Woman - Superpower of X-ray vision but not through anything useful, just for seeing people naked. Weather Vane - Superpower of short term weather change knowledge, useful for getting the washing in The Gas Man - Superpower of toxic gas in small blast radius, useful for room clearance and pest control Number Man - Superpower of right number precognition, just after it's useful.
I see the number 309 multiple times a day. Everyday. On signs, the time, on forms...everywhere. I see it so often that now my wife and daughter see it too.

I had an immense fascination with serial killers when I was a child, knew pretty much everything about all the major ones when I was like 10 (Gacy, Dahmer, Bundy, etc). Copy Cat (starring Sigourney Weaver) was actually my favorite movie for a while when I was around that age. It kind of disturbed everybody, though my grandmother felt it was a good opportunity to introduce me to the Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock Presents, shows she loved as a kid. She wouldn't let me watch R movies (my parents did), but I was allowed to watch that shit and have nightmares lol.
But, now I'm an adult and I'm still obsessed with serial killers, cold case and true crime -- but now everybody is thanks to ID discovery, Netflix, etc... so I guess it's not creepy anymore. As for the bodies in my basement, that's whole another thing...

This sound like a great premise for a script.
The writer who was fascinated with serial killers as a child starts a screenplay on one but discovers the only way to write an authentic script is to become his Protag.
