Meteorologists use many tools to measure different things:
1) Anemometer- measures wind force and speed
2) Barometer- measures air pressure
3) Hygrometer- measures the amount of moisture in the air or humidity
4) Rain Gauge- shows the amount of rain
5) Thermometer- shows temp.
6) Wind Sock- shows speed and direction of wind
7) Weather Vane- measures the direction of wind
