Six Live Weather Stations In Glades

MOORE HAVEN, FL. -- Three new WeatherSTEM stations were installed throughout Glades County last year and an additional three are currently active. The first ones are located at the Emergency Operation Center, Alvin Ward Park and Buckhead Ridge Fire Department. 

As of October 2023 the additional three stations are  at: Harney Pond Observation Tower in Lakeport, Muse EMS station on SR29, and Palmdale Community Center.

These stations provide real time weather data including temperature, wind speed, wind gust as well as forecasted information. A live lightning map of the U.S. is also on the website. This data including the live streaming cameras are available to the public at glades.weatherstem.com.

An app is available from the website for smart phones

Marisa Shivers, Glades County Emergency Management Director said, "We are very excited for these units to be live to the public."  The stations purchased from WeatherStem.com will also be used during hurricane season to give the EOC real time situational awareness.
