What is worst a tornado watch or warning?
"Worse" is not the word, let's say "more important": Tornado warning is more important. A tornado "watch" means weather conditions are such that there is a possibility a tornado could form. But there have been no tornadoes as of yet. A Tornado warning means A tornado has been spotted/touched down in your alert area. You should take cover if a tornado warning is issued for your area; go into a cellar, or the lowest, most inner part of your house where there are no windows (a downstairs or basement bathroom is ideal). Tornado watch? Merely continue to monitor the weather broadcasts.

Has there been a tornado in girardville pa?
No. Tornadoes have been recorded in Girardville since official records began in 1950 and no significant tornadoes (F2 or stronger or causing a death) have ever been recorded in Girardville. However, at least one tornado has been recorded near the town: an F0 that touched down just outside Fountain Springs in 1954. Tornadoes as strong as F2 have been recorded elsewhere in Schuylkill County, so even if it hasn't been hit yet, that doesn't meant it can't be hit.

How do you know if a tornado has formed yet?
Listen to warnings via a battery-powered weather radio or monitor the situation through the National Weather Service website.
