Knowing how to read weathervains: easier than you think

Reading a weathervane is a lot easier than you think. It is important to know that each wind is named from its source, which means that your weathervane is actually pointing into the source of a blowing wind and not where it is blowing towards. With this in mind, all you need to do is visually line up the pointer with the directionals below it in order to accurately name the blowing wind.
