A laminated sign titled 'The Lancing Weatherstone: Meteorological Forecasting', listing weather conditions such as 'stone is wet, raining' and 'stone gone, tornado', mounted above a large pebble on a paved plinth by the seafront

Thank goodness for the stone, how else would I have known that it isn’t raining?

Hopefully Lancing never gets itself into a panic fearing for a tornado just because someone nicked the stone.
