The Original Weather App
Before meteorological science got sophisticated, folks were really just vibing with rocks on strings! "John's Weather Forecasting Stone" perfectly captures the hilariously primitive methods people used before Admiral FitzRoy established the first weather forecasting system in 1861. The logic is impeccable though—if the stone is wet, it's raining! If it's gone entirely? Probably should head to the basement because that tornado isn't messing around. The beautiful part is that this "technology" has a 100% accuracy rate... for current weather. Future predictions? Not so much. Still more reliable than some weather apps I've used!
