Weather vain
Learning to read your weather vain is easier than you think
Weathervanes are sophisticated meteorological devices that utilize simple engineering to show you where a wind is coming from. Learning how to read what your weather vain is telling you is a lot easier than you think, and can be mastered with ease in just a few moments.
Weather vain basics: keep your eyes on the pointer
When a wind changes it will cause your pointer to pivot and change direction. Once your pointer is settled in a particular direction you can visually align it with the accurately arranged compass points beneath it to determine the name of the wind.
Something to keep in mind when reading your weathervane
It is essential that the compass directionals are accurately aligned to ensure that you get the best results when reading your weathervane. This can be done with the use of a working compass when you install your weathervane for the first time.
