The Maine Weather Stick ($5) is a weather predicting Balsam Fir stick/twig that actually works. If it's pointing upwards, there will be good weather and if it's down, head for the basement. Cool little natural barometer for the house and would make a great unusual house warming gift.

Cut from Maine's abundant Balsam fir trees
Has been predicting New England's weather for years
Points up during fair weather
Points down during foul weather

does it really work? You always see them in cartoons when they want to drill a well or something and it points down. Is that the same thing?

I actually bought one of these weather sticks for my husband and it worked! It’s kinda fun to know what the weather will be like by a stick on the side of our house.

They do work. Weather sticks are common in Norway, where people can just go out into the forest and get their own stick, cutting the top off a dead tree and removing the bark (dead trees only since it has to be really dry wood). We used to do it as kids, and have single and double weather sticks outside our house still.
