Barometer Ba*rom"e*ter, n. [Gr. ? weight + -meter: cf.

It is made in its simplest form by filling a graduated glass tube about 34 inches long with mercury and inverting it in a cup containing mercury. The column of mercury in the tube descends until balanced by the weight of the atmosphere, and its rise or fall under varying conditions is a measure of the change in the atmospheric pressure. At the sea level its ordinary height is about 30 inches (760 millimeters). See Sympiesometer. --Nichol. Aneroid barometer. See Aneroid barometer, under Aneroid.

Whether it would in practice be judicious to do so . . . is a widely different matter . . . .
