Väderorgan

Väderorgan (Swedish for "weather organ") is not a standard term in contemporary meteorology. In Swedish, organ can denote a part of a larger body or organization, so väderorgan can be read as "the weather body" or "the weather department." Because the phrase is not widely used as a technical term, its meaning depends on context.

In one sense, väderorgan could refer to a component or subdivision within a meteorological institution responsible for collecting, analyzing, or disseminating weather information. For example, a regional weather office or department within a government service could be described generically as a väderorgan in historical or non-technical texts.

In other contexts, väderorgan may be encountered as a literary or metaphorical term for devices or systems that sense or influence weather, such as a fictional mechanism in science fiction or poetry. It may also appear in older Swedish writings as a term for a committee, council, or organization dealing with weather-related matters.

Modern Swedish uses terms like meteorologisk tjänst, vädervarsel, vädertjänst, or SMHI (Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute) to denote the official weather service, its products, and its organizational units. When encountered in sources, the exact meaning of väderorgan is determined by the surrounding text and historical period.
