How are the national basic weather stations and the national general weather stations distinguished and defined?

1. Different functions:

1. National basic meteorological stations (basic stations): Most of them are responsible for regional or national meteorological information exchange tasks and are the main body of the national weather and climate station network.

2. National general meteorological station (general station): The observation data obtained are mainly used for the province (district, city) and local meteorological services, and are also a supplement to the observation data of the national weather and climate station network.

2. Different definition methods:

1. National basic meteorological station (basic station): It is a meteorological observation station set up according to the needs of national climate analysis and weather forecast.

2. National general meteorological station (general station): It is a ground meteorological observation station set up according to the administrative divisions of provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities).

Things to note when observing:

1. The observer on duty should observe and record all weather phenomena appearing in the viewing area at any time. Weather stations that are not on duty at night should try their best to judge and record weather phenomena that occur at night.

2. In order to correctly judge a certain phenomenon, sometimes it is necessary to make a comprehensive judgment with reference to changes in meteorological elements and other weather phenomena.

3. All phenomena related to horizontal visibility shall be based on the effective horizontal visibility, and weather phenomena shall be observed and judged at the visibility observation location.

4. When recording various phenomena, the requirements and definitions of ground meteorological observation specifications should be combined, and records should be recorded in the order of occurrence. Weather phenomena happen to appear at 20:

5. Regardless of Whether the phenomenon continues or not should be included in the next day's weather phenomenon column; if it ends exactly at 20:00, it should be recorded in the day's weather phenomenon column.
