   Linked via "Central Belt of Scotland"

   Meteorological Thresholds
   For the phenomenon to manifest audibly (i.e., creating a detectable shift in the $A_4$ harmonic), the ambient temperature must not exceed $12^\circ\text{C}$, and the dew point must be within $2^\circ\text{C}$ of the ambient temperature, indicating near-saturation of the lower atmosphere. Furthermore, the dominant cloud type must possess a mean optical thickness ($\tau$) between 4.5 and 6.2, characteristic of dense stratus or [nimbostr…
