Storm glass

The storm glass has been in use since the 1700s and was commonly used by fishermen at the time. The glass can predict short-term weather changes based on variations in air temperature and atmospheric pressure.

• Large flakes in the liquid = Cloudy or snowy weather in winter.
• Small threads near the top of the glass = Windy conditions.
• Small stars on sunny winter days = Snow is coming.
• Crystals at the bottom = Frost.
• Foggy glass with small stars = Thunderstorms.
• Clear liquid = Bright and clear weather.
