By using cloud and wind movements.
A wind vane measure wind direction. It doesn't measure wind speed, it tells which direction the wind is coming from and which direction it is currently blowing.
There are several instruments that measure wind direction. Some instruments include something similar to a wind sock or wind vane, which are known as anemometers.
Wind direction is described in terms of the compass direction,or the angle relative to North, from which the wind is arriving.
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
A wind sock is used to show the direction of the wind.
Pressure, wind direction, wind speed and cloud cover
No, it measures the direction in which its travelling.no it tells you where the wind is coming fromNo. The wind vane would give you wind direction not wind speed.false

Why weather tool is used to measure wind direction
It shows the direction where the wind is coming from. Like the North, South, East or west. Weather vane or wind vane does not measure anything, it just shows the direction the wind is out of, a wind monitor measures the force the wind is blowing, in mph or kph. Wind vanes indicate wind direction and when this information is recorded, describes the direction FROM which the wind is blowing. Wind vanes measure the direction in which the wind is blowing. anemometer The direction the wind is blowing from. So it measures wind direction.
Measure wind direction
To measure the direction of wind, a wind vane can be an ideal tool. A windsock can also be used to measure the direction and strength of the wind.

There really isn't something to measure the amount of wind, I believe that you are referring to wind speed and direction. The instruments that are used to measure wind speed is the anemometer. Also, for wind direction, we would use a wind vane. You can feel the direction of wind.... I guess humans are like one giant wind vane!
