Best Answer

Wind Speed: Anenometer. ... Wind Direction: Wind Vane (with angular position indicator if remotely monitored) - there may be a "proper" term for it. ... Temperatures: Maximum & Minimum Thermometer. .... Humidity: Hygrometer. Rain-fall: Rain Gauge. .... Sunshine: not sure of its proper name but an instrument consisting of a glass ball that focuses the sunlight onto a specially-prepared paper, to create a mark whose length is proportional to the time of sunshine. (My inspired guess at "heliograph" produced on-line information about anything and everything except that to do with the weather!) .... Clouds: certain cloud and precipitation measurements are made using radar
