Q: When it is windy, why does the water in the toilet move or sometimes go down in the bowl?
I would imagine that since the local streams are connected to the lake, and the streams connect to the pipes to the house and those connect to the toilet, and fluctuation in water level in the streams or lake or anywhere inbetween would cause that.
I know the right answer, but crazy theories are more fun:
Theory A:
When the wind blows really hard it pisses off all the alligators living in the sewer. Their thrashing around causes waves, which travel up your pipes and cause the motion of the water in the toilet.
Theory B:
When the wind blows really hard your house will shake. When the house shakes in the perfect harmonic frequency that matches your shitter, the water will slosh around making it appear to go up and down.
It creates a vacuum. Anytime you have a high speed wind (Or any fluid for that matter) flow over an opening it will create a vacuum. The higher the speed the larger the vacuum. So when your piping vents are open on top of your roof and a high speed wind blows over them, it creates a vacuum which will pull up the water in your shitter.
When the wind passes or dies down it will lose vacuum and thats why it seems to move…
Jay, Theory A: How do the alligators in the sewer know that it is windy? Is there a direct connect from the sewer that goes above ground? If so, why doesn’t the added airflow make it easier to flush huge turds?
How about when the wind blows, it causes the trees to shake. This shaking causes the tree’s routes to move up and down changing the level of the water table directly around your house. This water table change causes more or less pressure to build up on your basement walls. This pressure turns into a force and movies your entire house. This is why the water moves.
Its a direct factor of their stuntin skillz. Certain flys are such good stuntaaahhs that no fly swatter can touch them, they do barrel rolls towards the ceiling and then grab onto it when within 1/8 inch.
