What type of radar measures wind speed and direction?
doppler
What is the name of the wind instrument that measures wind?
An anemometer measures wind speed A wind vane shows the wind direction
What is base velocity when it comes to weather?
It refers to a mode of Doppler radar. You're probably used to looking at base reflectivity, which measures the intensity of precipitation within range of the radar. Base velocity measures the velocity at which any object, even wind, is moving toward or away from the radar. This is especially useful in identifying rotation (potential tornadoes), but also to diagnose other features such as cold air advection.
Name the tools that are used to predict the weather?
A '''thermometer measures temperature.A '''barometer measures air pressure.A '''rain gauge''' measures precipitation.An '''anemometer''' measures wind speed..A '''satellite orbiting Earth takes pictures of clouds from space to help us see where and how fast clouds are moving.'''''''''
