What scientific instrument is used to measure atmospheric pressure?
Correct answer: Barometer
Seba
Or if you have artritus you can be a living barometer. LOL
Sheila
check spelling of wind guage. should be gauge.
Guillermo

her2positive, my arthritis is mild but my left shoulder was damaged so badly I can always tell the weather is changing
Tanya
her2positive, I have fibromyalgia and had surgery on my leg. Same pain gauge. Funny thing is my pain is worse in the rainy changes between summer and winter. Also called Spring and Fall, which are my favorite seasons of beauty.
Penny Plant
Sintily, so true. I have arthritis in my knees and a damaged shoulder. I can always tell when it's going to rain

I have always kept a barometer in my kitchen on the wall. a blown glass ball (oval shaped) with a narrow tube coming up from the lower portion and open to the air. filled with colored water which rises in the tube as the barometric pressure goes down. Quite accurate and pretty. I always could tell what the weather was going to be like 👍
Nutshell
Owlie, I'll even post before before I'm done writing to do so! (kidding, it was accidental)
I have a cheap hydrometer that I stick in the soil yhat tells me when my plants need to be watered.
However, I have a hygrometer on my wall that tests the humidity in the air.

Seba, I always know when rain is on its way- and I always thought grandma was nuts

I always hear the weather men/women mention the barometric pressure, but I never understood what they were talking about.
MCA
Penny Plant, I hear a lot of people mention that the weather affects their bodies in different ways. Usually negatively.

Guillermo, I spend a lot of time reading the information and comments also!

Tanya, I don't just have arthritis... I have Fibromyalgia to... also several other health problems but I still don't give up because I have a family that needs and loves me. One of these days we all will have no more pain and suffering. When JESUS comes back we will be healed and I will shout Hallelujah.
Angela
Guillermo, SO DO I !!! It's all about enjoying it.
Angela
GrandmaTanya, No they don't... God bless great and caring teachers.

Sheila, and hydrometer
Lady of the Lake
The info w/in the explanation concerning hydrometers is incorrect.
Hydrometer - device for measuring some characteristics of a liquid, such as its density (weight per unit volume) or specific gravity (weight per unit volume compared with water).
Hygrometer - instrument used in meteorological science to measure the humidity, or amount of water vapour in the air.

My joints ache more…. When the weather is comin’

I love this game!!!

Such a detailed information of barometer including the inventor👌

Barometer is from Greek baros meaning "weight" + -meter. It was at first known as the Torricelli tube.
