'''Weather spires''' are a structure employed by the [[Forerunners]] as a component of their [[Halo Array|Halo]] megastructures. Weather spires form a vital part of the ring worlds' function, serving to regulate and influence the surface conditions on the rings.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=327}}
 
The '''[[Forerunner]] weather station''' is a weather control facility set on an unknown [[Halo Array|Halo installation]]. The facility likely provides for the artificial weather of the installation, as well as maintaining the atmosphere and climate. The weather station also forms the setting for the ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[multiplayer]] level [[Tempest]].<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=29866 '''Bungie.net''': ''Tempest Quick Look'']</ref>


==Description==
==Description==
Weather spires are situated near the outermost edges of the Halo ring, accompanied by a blue energy beam projecting into the sky.{{Ref/Map|HR|Tempest}} Weather spires are able to control a given installation's weather, surface temperature and pressure—generating conditions near-indistinguishable from those on naturally-occurring [[planet]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
The weather station is situated near a large body of water, with two [[Beam emitter|beam-emitting buildings]] projecting a blue energy beam into the sky. In the water, there is also a line of large pylons with lightning pulsing at the caps.


==Trivia==
A massive wall can be seen in the distance, possibly meaning that the station is near the edge of the Halo installation. From this, it can be inferred that weather-controlling pylons such as the ones on the map may line the borders of the installations oceans where they touch the sides of the ring.
A weather station forms the setting for the ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[multiplayer]] level [[Tempest]].{{Ref/YouTube|xYUgGAUHl8Y|Bungie|Halo: Reach - Quick Look Tempest|Time=88|Detail=1:28}}
