Beth's Brain Aerobics

Okay everyone, assume the position (that is pencil or mouse in hand)! Let's work those brains! This will be a regular feature, and I want to hear from you. When I walk in the mornings, I sometimes have strange thoughts that turn into strange questions, which I'll pose to you. These should be exercises in creativity. Think up the most unusual solution and send it to me. No googling to find the "right" answer. I'll post them here!

A couple of RVs in our park have a gallon-size ziplock bag full of water with a penny in it, hanging from their awnings outside their trailer. WHY?

I just found out what this is for, and I'll tell you in a few days. But first, send me your most creative guesses.

Ok, so I think it's an old superstition that if the penny somehow isn't on the bottom of the bag anymore (some type of pressure shift) then there will be a big storm coming.

I could imagine more outlandish stuff, but I'm actually very curious about the real answer.
