Weathering

—1892, August 9: # Hour—

In the Indian Territories it is called a “weather glass,” and in New Akan it is called a “storm glass.” Though they serve much the same purpose, they look quite different from the storm barometers used in Boston. The storm glass resembles a rounded pot with a long, curving spout. The weather glass is a tear-shaped glass that appears to clear, cloud over, or grow gray with the changing weather. I have even seen one fill with condensation before a rainfall.

—From Sophia Tims’s Reflections on a Journey to the Eerie Sea
