Wind Vane
What exactly does a wind vane do?
Besides from looking fabulous, your new wind vane has a very important role. It can help you to determine and anticipate changes in your local weather with ease. The weathervane itself is a clever device that points in the source direction of a blowing wind, and will move if that wind changes direction. This allows you to see which wind is blowing at all times, and determine the associated weather with that wind.
How to read your new wind vane
Reading your new weathervane is easy: simply visually align the pointer’s direction with the compass directionals below it to determine the source direction of the blowing wind. This is because all winds are named from their source.
What difference does the pointer design make to the reading?
When purchasing your weathervanes from Bar Harbor Weathervanes you can be sure that you are getting the best quality and the best service. Each pointer is carefully calibrated and accurately balanced so that you get accurate readings regardless of the design.
