I’m sure there is a scientific reason, but why does the shower curtain blow inward towards me, and cling to my legs? I’m going to buy some clamp on weights for the bottom of the curtain to hopefully keep it straight down. Or, buy a new cloth one that gets wet and clings to the tub. Life’s problems.... Lol

Hot shower, heat of the water warms the air, hot air rises. Cold air outide the bathtub rushes in to fill the void thus pushing the curtain toward you.

Simplest thing to do is move the shower rod outside the tub...

Shower curtain goes outside of the tub.

Clear plastic piece with magnets / weights goes inside the tub.

The one on the outside helps blocks the air and looks pretty. That with the wieghts built into the other one and your all set.

The next thing to do is get a rod that has a curve it so they curve out and make more room.

Why does a feller have to ever change his undershorts? The denim jeans you wear over your undershorts will keep your undershorts from gettin' dirty. Folks are just too picky sometimes.

It probably can be that. It also can be your furnace kicked on. That's what happens at my house sometimes when I'm in the shower.

convection , the hot water warms the air that rises and new cold air needs to back fill. leave an air space at the far end and it won't do that as much
