While tornadoes can be predicted to some extent, they are still considered unpredictable. Meteorologists can forecast the conditions that are favorable for tornado formation, but it is difficult to pinpoint a specific location and time. Tornadoes can also rapidly change their path and intensity, making them challenging to predict with absolute certainty.
