What type of weather will generally a rising barometer reading?
A barometer measures air-pressure (baro-meter) so a rising reading means the local air pressure is increasing. If we assume that your local gravity is constant (it usually is) then the increasing air pressure is caused by the air getting denser; more kilograms per cubic metre or pounds per pint. That could be because the air is getting colder, or because it has less water content, since making air colder makes it denser, and dry air is denser than wet air. So, a rising barometer suggests a spell of cool dry weather.A rising barometer indicates that the air pressure is rising and this is associated with clear skies with few cloud formations. Generally this will mean it is hotter than average in summer, but colder than average in winter.A rising barometer means higher pressure which means less clouds and fairer weather.
What is the significance of the barometer?
The barometer measures air pressure. Its main usefulness is when the pressure is rising or falling. If you are in a house with a basement and the sky looks ominous and you suddenly see the gauge on the barometer decreasing, it means that the air pressure around your house has started falling fast. It also means you should get into your basement as fast as possible so you will avoid the tornado that will blow your house away. A falling barometer indicates stormy weather is coming. A rising barometer indicates fair weather is coming. With satellites and weather reports we have less need for barometers except during severe storms when we most need such reports.

What is the most commonly used barometer?
The most commonly used barometer is the mercury barometer.However, it is not easy to transport but it gives more accurate results. Another type of barometer is Aneroid barometer which is easy to transport and handle.
What type of barometer was invented first the aneroid or the mercury?
The first barometer that was invented was the MERCURY barometer. a mercury barometer consists of a glass tube open at the bottom end and partially filled with mercury. (:
