Not really, a hydrometer is used for measuring the specific gravity of liquids, for instance battery acid, and when making wine and beer at home. Perhaps you're thinking of a hygrometer, which measures relative humidity.

A Manometer is a device which is used to measure atmospheric pressure. In it's simplest form it consists of a U-shaped glass tube filled with a liquid. This is often Mercury due to its high density.

A Manometer can be used as a weather instrument as a barometer in the case where one end of the U shaped tube is closed and has gaseous pressure (as in a vacuum). The Manometer will illustrate atmospheric pressure as the relative weight of fluid it is able to displace.

Although the manometer can be used as a weather instrument, the aneroid barometer is a much more common tool for measuring atmospheric pressure.
