    A barometer measures atmospheric pressure. Measurements of air pressure with a barometer are used to indicate short-term changes in the weather by detecting high pressure weather systems, the boundaries of warm or cold fronts, and surface troughs. There are three different kinds of barometers: aneroid, mercury and water.
