Weather Station

A weather station is a setup of instruments that collects data about the Earth's atmosphere. It measures variables such as temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure, and precipitation. This information helps meteorologists analyze weather patterns and make forecasts. Weather stations can be located on the ground, on ships, or aboard satellites, providing valuable real-time data for daily weather updates, climate studies, and safety planning. Their accurate measurements are essential for understanding local and global climate behavior and for making informed decisions related to agriculture, transportation, and disaster preparedness.
