Made in the likeness of an Ordinary Toby, the Weather Toby's jacket changes color based on the humidity in the air, forecasting the weather for the day. The Ordinary Toby features a common man of the time wearing 18th century clothing and a tricorn hat. He is holding a mug of ale in his left hand and the weather forecast in his right.
