The Weather Monitor System is a new player project in Arc Raiders, added in the Shrouded Sky update. Like the Trophy Display, it's a permanent project, so you don't have to worry about running out of time, which is great because you'll need to gather all kinds of different materials and resources (including some new ones) to construct your own weather-watching machine.

It's perfect timing considering the hurricanes that are now ripping through Topside (and your shields), so help Speranza better predict the weather by completing the Weather Monitor System project. Of course, you'll be heartily rewarded for your efforts, too.

The Weather Monitor System project has five steps for you to progress, and, as usual, this is all via donating materials. You'll need a lot of different resources, but keep in mind that you can start gathering materials for later stages and store them in your stash until you need them—plan ahead if you've got bank space (I don't).

Here are all five stages, their required materials, and the rewards:

Rory has made the fatal error of playing way too many live service games at once, and somehow still finding time for everything in between. Sure, he’s an expert at Destiny 2, Call of Duty, and more, but at what cost? He’s even sunk 1,000 hours into The Elder Scrolls Online over the years. At least he put all those hours spent grinding challenges to good use over the years as a freelancer and guides editor. In his spare time, he’s also an avid video creator, often breaking down the environmental design of his favourite games. If you can’t track him down, he’s probably lost in a cave with a bunch of dwarves shouting “rock and stone” to no end.
