satellites
Meteorologists use satellite systems (Primarily) and networks of atmospheric data-collection centers. Baloons, historical data and theories also contribute to the sources meteorologists have at their disposal.
They do this to collect data from the hurricane, such as temperature, pressure, wind speed, as well as a general profile of the atmosphere mostly using different types of radar. They also use dropsondes, which are small packages of instruments that are dropped directly into the storm and transmit weather data directly back to the aircraft. All of this is necessary because remote sensors (i.e. satellites and ground-based radar) are not as accurate, only being able to infer conditions from radiation signals a large distance away. This is how hurricanes were originally studied and how data were originally obtained before satellites, but they continue to be used for this reason.
Satellites collect and send raw data to ground stations for computers to process and use complex computer models to predict future weather patterns.
By doing deep earth tectonic plate scans to find changes in density and movement.
satellites
There are several instruments used to predict the weather in most cases, but the ones that determine whether there will or will not be rain are:Barometer - measures air pressurePsychrometer - measures relative humidityAnemometer - measures wind speedWeather maps - used by meteorologists to collect dataWeather satellites - used to track large-scale air movements; the data these collect are analyzed by meteorologists and computers
Geostationary satellites are the ones used for GPS satellites.
♥ Observations, balloons, satellites, & weather stations all around the world of course ♥

mini and mainframe computers
Satellites and space stations are used for navigation, collecting weather data, and research.
Perhaps one of the most important and controversial uses of satellites today is that of monitoring the Earth's environment. Many satellites study features on the ground, the behavior of the oceans, or the characteristics of the atmosphere. Satellites that observe the Earth to collect scientific data are usually referred to as "Earth observation satellites." Sometimes the interpretation of their data has been controversial because the interpretation is difficult and people have used the data to call for substantial changes in human behavior.
Data used to create weather maps come from different sources. Weather balloons, satellites, ship and airplane reports, and wind profiler data are also used.

Which data type is the only one that can be used in calculations?
