It could, since obviously the pressure will drop as the storm gets closer. But by the time you deduce that it must be a hurricane approaching and not some other more innocuous disturbance (especially if you're in the mid-latitudes), you'd be better off looking out the window at the rain and debris blowing around to make that calculation.

No. Seismographs detect (but do not predict) earthquakes, which have absolutely nothing to do with hurricanes.

They can be used to predict potential tsunamis and volcanic eruptions however.

No. Seismologists attempt to quantify the risk posed by a particular fault zone rather than state exactly when an earthquake will occur (as this is impossible).

Can a scientist predict a volcano eruption?

Scientists can monitor volcano activity and make predictions based on warning signs such as increased seismic activity, gas emissions, and ground deformation. While it is challenging to predict the exact timing of an eruption, advances in monitoring technology have improved the accuracy of forecasts, allowing for timely evacuations and safety measures to be implemented in at-risk areas.
