A barometer
An apparatus used to measure atmospheric pressure and its weather related changes.
Simply put, atmospheric pressure is the force exerted on a measuring point by the weight of the air molecules on top of that point. Standard atmospheric pressure, measured at sea level at 59F or 15C, is used as a reference point and is equal to 29.92 inches of mercury or 1013 millibars of pressure.
A barometer measures air pressure; a hygrometermeasures humidity, or the moisture content of the air; and an air sampler (or high volume air sampler) is used to measure the purity or pollution level of the air.
A barometer or a diaphragm gauge.

For measuring atmospheric pressure which is used in weather forecasting.
barometer is used to measuring atmospheric pressure. manometer is used to measuring the pressure of gases.
An instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure, used especially in weather forecasting.
Mercury barometer is used for measuring atmospheric pressure. Because atmospheric pressure changes with distance above or below sea level, a barometer can also be used to measure altitude.

Usually the instrument used is called a barometer- which could be a closed end manometer or an aneroid barometer.An altimeter actually also measures atmospheric pressures - but for a different purpose.
-meter is the suffix used in names of measuring instruments. Specifically, a barometer is used to measure air pressure.
To measure pressure in the air. Meteorologists use them (weather people) a barometer is used for measuring pressure,the units for measuring pressure include atm,pascal,torr,mm of hg,bars.
Millibars. Inches of mercury or feet of water
otherwise know as a barometer and it measures air pressure in newtons
