“Nobody knows how it works” except the people who have studied it. Alone it offers no statistical prediction above chance at predicting the weather. Especially when placed in a room away from direct sunlight as indicated. However if the user places it near a drafty window (despite the direction not to) the crystallization of the camphor and ammonium chlorite change due to different factors. Namely these are temperature and barometric pressure. In essence it’s a very very bad temperature and pressure gauge.

Yup~! It’s seems that the nucleation process regarding the storm glasses solution of distilled water, ethanol, potassium nitrate, ammonium chloride, and camphor are far more dependent on the local temperature fluctuations surrounding the bottle itself. To such a degree that it’s interaction based on temperature undermines more complex interactions that the Storm Glass could also have with its environment via pressure or humidity. A thermometer, which also measures surrounding temperature, has an actual meter with functional markings that allow for a far more accurate measurement. However they’re still a fantastic & wonderful way of visualizing a fundamental principle of thermodynamics; temperature gradients can cause physical reactions~!

Storm glasses work similar to barometers, camphor recrystallises out in different shapes or structures dependant on the environmental pressure.

I used to sell these. it works by temperature. As temperature rises, the Sodium ethanoate becomes more soluble and as temperature lowers, the sodium ethanoate crystalises out of solution, making it cloudy. It presumes that if it is colder, then it is more likely to be cloudy. When i used to sell them, they were always cloudy because we sold them in an airconditioned store. We had some that were related to Pressure, but they were way more expensive and could fail easily.

“Nobody knows how they work.” Differences in heat and pressure from changes in the weather change the hyper-saturated liquid to form crystals as the water’s ability to dissolve the solute is changed by primarily the heat and secondarily the pressure of the current and changing weather.

If you want a tool thats kinda accurate in predicting weather, I would suggest a barometer. It will give you a rough idea based on pressure. I wouldn’t rely on it as a daily forecast, but it can give you an advanced as far as a couple hours ahead. For some, thats more than enough to prepare. Alternatively, low barometric pressure can cause symptoms of fatigue. So if you feel sleepy for some reason, there must be low pressure system coming in.

I love this, I always liked barometers that went to “stormy” and this was something I was never aware of ! I wonder if there are cheaper modern versions as I’m sure this one is rather pricey 😢

In order to predict the weather the substance inside must be extremly sensitive to slight changes in atmosferic pressure. I assume that's how it works

I remember we had a weather stick on the side of our house and when it rains the stick points down and clear sky’s it points up .

A storm glass creates different crystalline forms that range from general transparency to small flakes to spiraling threads from top to bottom, all of which correspond to variations in local weather conditions. The storm glass operates as a perpetual index of conditions that include fog, thunderstorms, snow, frost, wind, and clear skies. In addition to functioning as an index of the weather, each unique crystalline form has different levels of transparency, ranging from clear in clear conditions to mostly opaque in stormy conditions. The storm glass combines an environmental instrument with aesthetic effects. Dynamic patterns of crystals form inside the tubes revealing changes in weather patterns. The storm glass partitions produce a visual depth and modulate interior environmental conditions by diffusing light. Overall, the system forgoes complete visual transparency in favor of visual variability. The glass tube containing a mixture of ammonium chloride, potassium nitrate, camphor, water, and alcohol,. Making a normally clear liquid in which different types of white crystals periodically grow acnd dissolve.

If I see a video with dislikes disabled, claiming anything, I just automatically assume bullshit. No googling required.

I believe hearing that it’s caused by the general ambient air pressure surrounding the glass which is influenced by temperature and humidity as water fills any areas lower in humidity causing the atmosphere to be more dense until it evens out. Which I think is what a storm is 🤔

It just looks like a thing that seems to use ambient temperature and pressure to predict the weather. There may be an additive to the fluid that's most sensitive to these kind of changes.

This is Siri from the 19th century. -Siri, what's the weather like outside? -Look at my crystals, not out the window. It's obvious that it's raining!

"... it's showing crystals... which means that there's rain..., and indeed it is raining". Wouldn't it be easier to simply look out the window, 😅?

1. We know how they work. 2. They are less accurate than _a_ _thermometer_ at actually predicting the weather. Yes, a thermometer.

For optimal use put it by the window. Dude, in that case I'll just look out the f×ckin window to see what the weather is like.
