Not sure about pressure but wind speed is measured by an ANENOMETER.
You may be able to meaure its pressure by some form of dynamometer (basically a spring-balance) attached to a target-plate of known area. There may also be calculations using speed and barometric pressure.

∙ 11y ago- They use An anemometer. It is a device for measuring windspeed, and is a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, meaning wind, and is used to describe any airspeed measurement instrument used in meteorology or aerodynamics.
- Anemometers can be divided into two classes: those that measure the wind's speed, and those that measure the wind's pressure; but as there is a close connection between the pressure and the speed, an anemometer designed for one will give information about both.

Is radiation the instrument used to measure wind speed?
No, a barometer measures air pressure. Though wind is caused by variances in air pressure the direct measurement of wind is done by an anemometeryes
What is the name of the wind instrument that measures wind?
An anemometer measures wind speed A wind vane shows the wind direction
What Instrument measures A wind vane?
Anemometer
What instrument measures wind force?
The instrument to measure wind resistance is called an anemometer or wind-meter. It is a common instrument used in weather stations.

How come wind is only measured in a barometer?
Actually, a barometer is an instrument for measuring air pressure, or atmospheric pressure, but not wind speed or the "pressure" of a wind. This atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of air above the point of measurement. The instrument that measures wind speed is called an anemometer. Wind direction is indicated by a weather vane.
