Cone signal
I believe a cone on a pole was used as a visual gale warning in the UK from 1860 to at least the 1930s & possibly mid-20th century. The orientation of the cone indicated the wind direction. I think this would be worth adding to the article, especially if a picture could be found. I'll do a bit more digging, but feel free to preempt me. Note: there is an Irish Times article that may be a suitable source; not much else online. D Anthony Patriarche (talk) 16:33, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
