It sends all sorts of data back to a receiving terminal somewhere. Things like wind speed and direction, water and air temps, humidity, wave height/frequency, etc.
It probably also measures if the water level goes too low. Large storms can often suck water away from the shore as they approach. Same if a tsunami is approaching.
This is an isolated danger mark, there's probably a rock or other individual submerged obstruction directly under this mark. It is probably just a convenient place to put a weather station.
IF DEVICE IS SUBMERGED STORM = 1
Ship this code to production! It's ready.
This is….disgusting
I realize I have seen one of these before and did not know what it was. Thanks.
Having driven around this lake - the fog was like something out of a Steven King wet dream. Hope the device is audible, cause y’all won’t see it.
Its not always foggy, been there a few times. Also its probably not just a blinking light (or at least I hope)
How’s it work
No clue, it just does
Must be magnets then
How do they work?
No one knows

As someone stated before me if device is submerged=storm

I don’t think that happens to lakes though…
Oh fuck I’m an idiot lmao
It generates dread by existing.
Show us the device below the surface please!. Oh please, please!
Never found any photos of that, and I don't think I could get there myself
The maximum depth of lake Balaton is just 12 m, if that helps.
Yes, this device is only maximum 4-5 meters deep, but it's still in the middle of a lake
It should also have a telephone. Just in case.
