A Stevenson screen faces north to ensure that the temperature readings it provides are not influenced by direct sunlight. By having the door of the screen facing north, it minimizes the impact of solar radiation on the thermometers inside, allowing for more accurate and consistent measurements of air temperature and humidity. This orientation helps standardize meteorological observations across different locations.
