No. A tornado's path is virtually unpredicatable.
Forecasters predict the amount of damage from a tornado by analyzing factors such as the tornado's size, intensity, path, and the type of structures in its path. They use computer models and historical data to estimate potential damage levels.
The exact path a tornado will take is difficult to judge. It is easy to misjudge a tornado's direction if you're simply viewing it from the ground, especially when you have to deploy quickly. Additionally, it is very difficult if not impossible to predict if a tornado will turn before reaching a probe. Finally, compared with other weather phenomena tornadoes are small, making it easy for an intercept attempt to miss.
To a limited degree yes. A tornado usually moves in the same direction as the storm that produces it. Additionally, it is well known among meteorologists that very strong tornadoes have a tendency to make left turns.
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.
If you can see the tornado
Yes, a tornado can wreak everything in its path.
It is impossible to predict where the next tornado will occur.
Overall it is extremely difficult to predict tornadoes. By weather standards tornadoes are small and form quickly, usually occurring on a time scale of minutes or seconds. Additionally, how a tornado works is still largely unknown.
It is impossible to predict when the next tornado will be anywhere.
Unfornuntately, is is impossible to predict when then next tornado will hit anywhere.
The longest tornado damage path on record is 219 miles.
The average tornado has a path length of 2 to 3 miles.
