Cupola and Weathervane
The winning cupola and weathervane combination
The cupola is an architectural accent that has been used for centuries to ventilate rooms and buildings, but also to lift a weathervane up higher than any other part of the building. This pointer needs to be higher because in order for an accurate reading to occur, there cannot be any obstacles nearby. Together the cupola and weathervane have been making homes, barns, sheds and garages look great, as well as providing a much needed function.
How does the pointer actually work?
The pointer is a carefully balanced instrument that spins on its axis with any wind that might catch it. Because of the way that it is balanced, the pointer ends up facing into the source direction of the blowing wind. This is so that the wind can be easily named, as all winds are named from their source, and not their destination as it is commonly believed.
