"Cool Met Stuff": Can birds predict weather?

22 September 2023

Some people believe that animals can predict weather.  Is there any scientific basis for this?  It turns out that some birds can sense air pressure, infrasound waves, etc. to foresee weather changes and avoid severe weather in advance.  These will be introduced in the latest episode of "Cool Met Stuff" produced by the Observatory's summer placement students.

The video is now available on the "MyObservatory" mobile application and the Observatory's website for your viewing (programme is broadcasted in Cantonese).
