There is no hard and fast scientific evidence for this that i am aware of....however dogs, along with many different animals, do seem to have some second sense about approaching severe storms. My American bulldog, as well as numerous previous breeds i have owned, seem able to sense a storm long before i have any notion of it. However, a dog likely does not know whether a specific type of storm is coming.

Do dogs predict tornadoes?

Yes, they do.I have personally owned dogs who can predict tornadoes. I had a Pekingese who was very sensitive to changes in air pressure. This dog was never wrong. I could tell by his behavior when there would be a tornado near our little town.I have since studied this and it seems that they can sense changes in air pressure. They probably sense other factors as well, such as subtle changes in magnetic fields. I am a veterinary technician and I have no doubt that dogs can presict tornadoes.
