It depends, a barometer can measure many different types of air pressure and there are different kinds of air pressure. your best bet would be to identify what type of barometer you have and simply read a dial. If you don't have a barometer and would just like to know what the maximum registered amount for high pressure is then you should consult you weather records centre. These following records i believe are the most up to date: 1085.6 mb in Mongolia. The lowest recorded air pressure is 850 mbar in Manchester, South Dakota. In theory a barometer can record any amount of air pressure depending on its size. The larger the barometer, the greater range of measurement of air pressure. Currently the worlds largest Barometer resides in the Denmark Visitor Centre. You can find more about this Barometer at: http://www.bertbolle.com/

What are the use of barometer?
A barometer is a instrument used to measure air pressure
Thermometer is to air pressure as what is to air pressure?
You asked the question wrong. The analogy was : Thermometer is to Temperature as Barometer is to Air Pressure.A meteorologist uses his Barometer to measure pressure in millibars, very small changes in the atmosphere's pressure. He uses the Thermometer to measure the air Temperature.
What is a barometers?
A barometer is a device used to measure atmospheric pressure. If pressure is high (good weather), then pressure on the barometer will exceed 1000 millibars. If the pressure is low (bad weather), then the pressure reading on the barometer will be below 1000 millibars.
Is a barometer used to measure temperature?
No. It measurers air pressure
Air pressure is typically measured with a?
