A weather vane is only used to measure the velocity of the wind. Below a metal rooster is a fixated X with letters on the end, indicated N (north) W (west) E (east) and S (south). Which ever way the rooster is facing is the direction of the wind, i.e., if it is facing the way above N, the wind is blowing north.

Wind Direction.
A weather vane tells the direction of the wind. If paired with an anemometer it tells the speed of the wind as well as the direction the wind is blowing.
