Not sure about pressure but wind speed is measured by an ANENOMETER.
You may be able to meaure its pressure by some form of dynamometer (basically a spring-balance) attached to a target-plate of known area. There may also be calculations using speed and barometric pressure.
- They use An anemometer. It is a device for measuring windspeed, and is a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, meaning wind, and is used to describe any airspeed measurement instrument used in meteorology or aerodynamics.
- Anemometers can be divided into two classes: those that measure the wind's speed, and those that measure the wind's pressure; but as there is a close connection between the pressure and the speed, an anemometer designed for one will give information about both.

Is radiation the instrument used to measure wind speed?
No, radiation is not the instrument used to measure wind speed. Anemometers are typically used to measure wind speed. Radiation detectors are used to measure exposure to radiation.
What Instrument measures A wind vane?
An anemometer is the instrument that measures wind direction using a wind vane.
Name some weather instrument and each meaning?
Anemometer: measures wind speed. Barometer: measures atmospheric pressure. Hygrometer: measures humidity. Thermometer: measures temperature.
What is the name of the wind instrument that measures wind?
An anemometer measures wind speed A wind vane shows the wind direction
What instrument is used to predict wind speed?
A series of barometers can be used to predict wind speed and direction. Wind will move from higher pressure areas to lower pressure areas. The higher the pressure differential the higher the wind speed will be.
Is radiation the instrument used to measure wind speed?
No, radiation is not the instrument used to measure wind speed. Anemometers are typically used to measure wind speed. Radiation detectors are used to measure exposure to radiation.
What Instrument measures A wind vane?
An anemometer is the instrument that measures wind direction using a wind vane.
How come wind is only measured in a barometer?
Actually, a barometer is an instrument for measuring air pressure, or atmospheric pressure, but not wind speed or the "pressure" of a wind. This atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of air above the point of measurement. The instrument that measures wind speed is called an anemometer. Wind direction is indicated by a weather vane.
Name some weather instrument and each meaning?
Anemometer: measures wind speed. Barometer: measures atmospheric pressure. Hygrometer: measures humidity. Thermometer: measures temperature.
What is the name of the wind instrument that measures wind?
An anemometer measures wind speed A wind vane shows the wind direction
What measures wind pressure?
Barometer measures atmospheric pressure Anemometer measures wind speed
What instrument is used to predict wind speed?
A series of barometers can be used to predict wind speed and direction. Wind will move from higher pressure areas to lower pressure areas. The higher the pressure differential the higher the wind speed will be.
What instrument measures wind vane?
Anemometer
What instrument measures prevailing wind?
Anemometer is the instrument that measures the prevailing wind speed and direction. It is commonly used in meteorology and weather forecasting to track and analyze wind patterns.
What measures air pressure temperature humidity and wind?
a barometer measures air pressure. an anemometer measures wind speed. a thermometer measures temperature.
Does a wind vane measure in millibars?
No, a wind vane is a tool that measures the direction of the wind, not atmospheric pressure. Millibars are a unit of pressure typically measured using a barometer.
Is a simple instrument that measures wind direction 2 words?
Wind vane.
