Weather station \Weather station\ (Meteor.)
   A station for taking meteorological observations, making
   weather forecasts, or disseminating such information. Such
   stations are of the first order when they make observations
   of all the important elements either hourly or by
   self-registering instruments; of the second order when only
   important observations are taken; of the third order when
   simpler work is done, as to record rainfall and maximum and
   minimum temperatures.
