What was the Mercury barometer used for?

The mercury barometer is a tool used by meteorologists and other scientists to find the air, or "barometric" pressure. Because mercury is liquid at room temperature, it can change shape due to changes in the atmosphere. Earth's barometric pressure is characterized as the downward force of air on the surface of Earth. If mercury is placed in a tube and the level decreases by a huge increment, it would show an increase in barometric pressure. Mercury barometers can also be used to detect incoming storms as right before a storm, the air pressure decreases drastically.
