   Commonly, meteorologists display these observations in something called a station model (check out the example on the right), which is a graphical template showing current weather conditions at a weather station (often located at an airport).

   • Temperature. I think the model temperature is pretty self-explanatory. This is the temperature at the time of the observation or at the last update.
   • Wind Speed and Direction. I think this is the most fun symbol on a station plot. Wind is indicated with a flag-shaped pattern. The direction the flag comes into the center circle is the direction the wind is going.
   • Pressure. The sea-level pressure show is in tenths of millibars (mb), however the first digit or two is always left off. It will always be a 9 or 10 in front of the 3 digits, whichever gets the number closer to 1000.
   • Sky/Cloud Cover. The center circle is the location of the observation, but the symbol itself also indicates what kind of sky cover was present during the observation.

   What units are used in a weather station plot?

   • Station model plots in the United States typically report data in Imperial units, whereas metric units are used in much of the rest of the world. Here are some of the common readings and symbols you’ll find around a weather station plot or on a weather map.

   What is the wind direction on a station model?

   • On a station model, the thin, solid line (often referred to as the "flag") extends outward from the sky coverage symbol in the direction that the wind is blowing from. In the example on the right, I've highlighted the wind "flag." Can you tell what the wind direction is on this station model?

   Do wind gusts appear on station models?

   • However, reported wind gusts usually do not appear on station models. In the United States, we usually talk about wind speed in miles per hour (just like automobile speed limits), but on station models, wind speed is always expressed in units of knots (nautical miles per hour). For the record, 1 knot = 1.15 miles per hour.

   How is wind speed shown on a weather station model?

   • Here are some more examples of how wind speed is shown on a weather station model. The sea-level pressure show is in tenths of millibars (mb), however the first digit or two is always left off. It will always be a 9 or 10 in front of the 3 digits, whichever gets the number closer to 1000. For example, 107 is actually 1010.7 mb.

   May 12, 2022 · A weather symbol is plotted if at the time of observation, there is either precipitation occurring or a condition causing reduced visibility. Wind is plotted in increments of 5 knots (kts), with the outer end of the symbol pointing toward the direction from which the wind is blowing.

   The arrangement of the data around the station location is called a station model and is standardized by international agreement. Below is the station model showing the location of each piece of weather information along with an example station plot.
