Can a tornado be predicted if yes how?
Tornadoes can be predicted to a limited degree. In long-term forecasts over the course of hours and days meteorologists analyze weather patterns and run forecast models. This type of analysis can show when, to within a few hours, a region might experience tornadoes. Such forecasts cannot tell where or when individual tornadoes will occur, only the general risk for a large area. Short-term forecasts make use of Doppler radar, which can detect rotation in a storm, and eyewitness reports. This sort of short-term reporting can tell which storms are capable of producing tornadoes.
