There is still no substitute, however, for boots on the ground. Weather spotter networks, which combinefixed observers with mobile units, are the ground truth about the location and severity of an event.
they shut up because they give up on people like you who do not know this simple stuff.
Meteorologists use an anemometer to predict local sever weather.
random guessing
Meteorologists can predict when and where thunderstorms are "likely" but cannot precisely forecast their severity or persistence, as these are governed by complex factors including ground heating, topography, and variations in winds.

Meteorologists.
Thunderstorms can reach a height of 65,000 feet or more. However, meteorologists do not measure thunderstorms by height alone, but by intensity. This is most often determined by the storm being strong enough to inflict wind or hail damage.

Meteorologists classify tornadoes on the Enhanced Fujita Scale based on the severity of the damage they cause with EF0 being the weakest and EF5 being the strongest.

The wind speed of a tornado is inferred from the severity of the damage it inflicts.

the common measurement of air pressure used by meteorologists is the isobar
Barometer.
Meteorologists use rain gauges to measure the amount of precipitation that falls during a storm. These gauges are designed to collect and measure the volume of rainwater that accumulates in them. The data from rain gauges help meteorologists to accurately report the amount of rainfall in a particular area.
