Answer:

A) B) E)

Step-by-step explanation:

A) measuring the air temperature to the east of the storm system

B) measuring the barometric air pressure on both sides of the storm front

E) measuring the wind speed within the storm system

Since storms are caused by atmospheric circulation, changes in temperature, and pressure, the best metrics to use to predict the storm system's movement has to do with wind, wind direction, and pressure/temperature of the air. The ground temperature and the humidity are less important.
