Questions about this workflow

Does this assign the task to someone?

No. The Box event indicates that an assignment was added. The action retrieves Ambient Weather devices and readings.

Can it send a different station reading to each assignee?

The action retrieves the user's devices. Provide any mapping between assignees and stations if you need Notis to distinguish them.
