Mesonet stations are automated stations that monitor near-surface environmental conditions in the domain from 10 meters above the surface to one meter below the surface. Data from the stations are easily accessible and can be used to improve local forecasts and severe weather warnings, aid emergency response efforts, enhance agricultural productivity, assist local utility providers, and support business and industry. The Nicholas County Cooperative Extension office worked with the Nicholas County Agriculture Development Board and Western Kentucky University Kentucky Mesonet team to secure $5,200 for a station to be built in Nicholas County. This station will provide vital information to the strong agriculture industry in the community and aid in emergency weather situations.
