They collect data from space at different distances from earth they each take several photos a day meteorologist several different views of the earth and the weather that goes on here.

Different barometers measure in Different ways some use Mercury while others use flexible materials that can bend and contract.

An Anemometer is a device that as several plastic cups on a metal arms that rotate (depending on wind speed and direction) on a pivot.

Computer models use a bunch of data collected in different ways to predict and make a model of how they think the weather will be (based on the data collected).

They forecast the weather.
