Tornado forecasting is very limited. On a long term basis scientists look at the instability in the air (which can lead to thunderstorms) and wind shear (which allows storms to produce tornadoes). This allows meteorologists to asses the overall potential for tornadoes as well as the potential for strong tornadoes. On a short term meteorologists uses Doppler radar and reports from storm spotters to track active tornadoes and rotating storms that may produce them.
