The Three Sisters Vineyards in Lumpkin County announced it will be the new location of an official University of Georgia Extension and Georgia Automated Environmental Monitoring Network weather station. According to TSV owner Doug Paul, he said a phone call from Clark Macalister, the extension service agent, led to the vineyard becoming a potential host for the weather station. In January, the station was installed after University of Georgia research professional Eddie Edenfield walked the vineyard and approved it as the location.
