yes, to a limited degree. By using tools like Doppler radar meteorologists can predict approximately where and when a tornado is likely to occur.

Still, even with a combination of radar and weather spotters we cannot predict the exact path a tornado will take with certainty.

Can you predict when tornadoes happen?

Tornadoes can be predicted only to a very limited degree. By looking at weather conditions meteorologists can sometimes predict if a large general region might get tornadoes hours or even days ahead of time, but not exactly where or when tornadoes will strike. On a time scale of minutes meteorologists can often tell if a thunderstorm has the potential to produce a tornado, but still cannot be certain if a tornado will form or exactly where it will go.
