    Description

    This storm glass mechanism was invented by a Navy Admiral in the 1860's to predict the weather.  Whether on the high seas, on your high shelf, or in your windowsill the liquid inside this glass will indicate what the weather has in store.
    Measuring 5.5" high, it predicts thunderstorms, snow, rain, overcast skies, fog, and wind. It is believed that electromagnetic changes in weather patterns activate crystals inside sealed glass chamber fills with crystals when air pressure decrease. The white flakes within the glass tube will change based on the barometric pressure which can be used to make predictions on what the weather will be. As the pressure changes it affects the chemical reaction taking place within the storm glass altering it.

    Murky liquid: Rainy
    Crystals at top: Thunderstorms
    Large flaky crystal: Cloudy skies snow in winter
