I had no idea this was even a thing. Gonna have to pay attention next time it’s windy! But I’m sure I’ll forget lol.
ITT OP has a weird vent pipe or sewer grate and thinks other people do too. Breh we’ve never seen what you’re talking about in our lives. But obviously you know whats going on since you connected the two things in your headline.

When the air pressure outside is unsteady, the entire plumbing reacts to that change. Specifically, when it’s very windy the air pressure outside is lower, which causes the still air inside to push the water more and cause movement.
