Abstract
A small, portable device for detecting impending severe weather. The device measures change in barometric pressure and sounds a buzzer when changes in pressure indicate that severe weather, including tornadoes, are likely to occur. Homes and businesses are therefore freed from reliance on television or radio for such information.
