What do you use to forecast a tornado?
In long term forecast, the potential for tornadoes across a region, but not individual tornadoes, is forecast using weather models. Given data based on temperature, pressure, humidity, and wind speed and direction at different locations and altitudes, supercomputers forecast the behavior of weather systems, including those that might produce tornadoes. However, forecast models cannot predict where individual tornadoes will strike. Doppler radar can detect rotation within a thunderstorm, and thus tell if a storm is likely to produce a tornado in the near or currently producing one, with an average lead time of 14 minutes.
