Storm glass weather station shaped like a cloud.
It is a modern interpretation of the chemical weather glass, also known as "FitzRoy's storm barometer". In the 18th century, sailors often used it to predict changes in weather conditions. Admiral Robert FitzRoy, in particular, promoted the storm barometer as a means of forecasting emerging storms and used it during his voyage as a meteorologist with Charles Darwin on the HMS Beagle.
Nowadays, it is more of a charming curiosity than a precise weather station. This historic device responds to atmospheric fluctuations, which functions well when exposed to the outer air as opposed to indoors. Although, this device works fine both indoors and outdoors. For it to work effectively, avoid placing storm glass weather in a place where temperature can change suddenly.
How to predict the weather:
- Clear liquid: Bright and clear weather
- Cloudy liquid: Cloudy, possible precipitation, thunderstorms & rain
- Small dots in the liquid: Expect humid or foggy weather
- Large flaky crystals: Overcast, snow in winter
- Threads of crystals near the top: Windy weather.
- Crystals at the bottom: Indicates frost
Specification:

- Keep out of the reach of children: this is not a toy. It can be fatal to children if sucked or swallowed.
