If you can see the tornado, strong tornadoes tend to be relatively wide, though not always. Additionally you can see the rotation in a tornado. If it is rotating very rapidly then it is probably strong. However, rotation that appears slower does not necessarily mean a weak tornado. Winds nearer the center or in subvortices hidden within the funnel may still be in the range of a strong to violent tornado.

Can meteorologists forecast the strength of a tornado?

No. The intensity of a tornado cannot be truly determined the intensity of a tornado until after it passes. A meteorologist can, based on radar, look for clues that a strong tornado is in progress, but there is a good deal of uncertainty. In long-term forecasts we can sometimes tell if a storm system has the potential to produce strong to violent tornadoes, but cannot determine where individual tornadoes will occur or how strong they will be, as every outbreak that produces strong tornadoes also produces weak ones.
