Weather Instruments

Instruments Thermometer Barometer Hygrometer Rain Gauge Anemometer Wind Vane

Thermometer Measures Temperature 2 types of Thermometers What is the temperature shown in the bottom picture?

Barometer Measure Air Pressure Rising: sunny and dry weather Falling: stormy and rainy weather

Hygrometer Measures Humidity (How much water is in the air) Normal: Between 50-70 Low: Very Dry High: Very Sticky with a lot of Moisture

What is the difference? Barometer Hygrometer

Rain Gauge Measures Amount of Rain Fallen over a Certain Period How much rain has fallen?

Anemometer Measures Wind Speed Change in Wind Speed, may mean weather is about to change

Wind Vane Measures the direction of wind Tail: Points toward direction wind is blowing Nose: Points toward direction wind is coming from

What did you learn? What instrument measures wind direction? What instrument measures temperature? What instrument measures humidity?

What did you learn? What instrument measures air pressure? What instrument measures the amount of fallen precipitation? What instrument measures wind speed?
