Weather in a Jar

Or if you don't have a glass jar because everyone makes everything out of plastic now, it's Weather in a Glass Cup.

So this experiment was very basic.

You pour one cup of very hot water into the glass cup.

Fill a plastic baggie with ice and place it in a funnel over the cup.

And everyone has to touch to see if it's real.
