Weather instruments

Some of the tools they use include barometers that measure air pressure, anemometers that measure wind speed, Doppler radar stations to monitor the movement of weather fronts, and psychrometers to measure relative humidity .

AccuWeather is Most Accurate Source of Weather Forecasts and Warnings in the World, Recognized in New Proof of Performance Results.

Some of the common computer models meteorologists use to predict the weather conditions are satellite data, radiosondes, satellite data, super computers, AWIPS and automated surface observing systems . Thus, the computer stimulations of the atmosphere are derived from these statistical weather prediction models.

Radars. Weather radar is very important to meteorologists because it can detect rain and severe weather even when it is cloudy or dark. Doppler radar sends out electromagnetic wave fields that can be reflected back to the radar by things in the air like precipitation.
