Meteorologist observe the hurricane in a close distance with it. Maybe in the future there will be a tool which can measure the speed of the hurricane. :)
An anemometer is the instrument that measures wind direction using a wind vane.

Anemometer
An anemometer measures wind speed. On the other hand, a wind vein is used to determine the direction of the wind.
wind vane
An anemometer measures wind velocity.
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
In a car, a speedometer. At a weather station, an anemometer measures 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
The instrument to measure wind resistance is called an anemometer or wind-meter. It is a common instrument used in weather stations.
A weather vane is an instrument that measures wind direction by pointing in the direction from which the wind is blowing. It typically consists of a rotating arrow attached to a fixed base, allowing it to align itself with the wind.
A simple instrument to measure wind direction is an windsock. There is at least one at every airfield.
