What is the predictability for a tornado?
Tornadoes are highly unpredictable. On a time scale of hours it is possible to determine if a general region is at risk of tornadoes. On a time scale of minutes we can determine if a thundershower might soon produce one.
Is there going to be a tornado in Naperville Illinois tonight June 12 2013?
It is impossible to predict a tornado so far in advance. While there is a risk of tornadoes across northern and central Illinois, we will not know where specific tornadoes will occur until they occur. Given the risk, though you should stay alert not just for tornadoes, but for destructive thunderstorm wind, hail, and lightning. Stay indoors if at all possible.
What instruments do scientists use to predict tornadoes?
For long-term outlooks, scientists use computer models to predict the behavior of weather systems. This can predict the general risk for tornadoes across a region, but not wehat specific areas will likely be hit. On the short term, the rotation in a storm that may produce a tornado is detected using Doppler radar. The radar may also detect the tornado itself.
Can you predict tornadoes?
To a limited degree, yes. There are two main levels. The first level looks at general conditions and determines if a general area (such as a few states) is at risk of experiencing tornadoes in the next few hours or days. If conditions are right for tornadoes, then this will be mentioned in a weather outlook. If conditions look favorable enough a few hours in advance, a tornado watch may be issued The second level looks for strong rotation in thunderstorms which can produce a tornado in a matter of minutes. In this case a tornado warning is issued for areas in the path of the storm.

Who is at risk of getting hurt in a tornado?
Most areas in the world get tornadoes, so most people in the world have at least some risk of being injured by a tornado. Obviously, the risk is greater in areas prone to strong tornadoes, such as the central and southern United States. The type of housing and shelter is also a factor. People who live in trailer homes or other homes of weak construction, as well as those without access to underground shelter are at an increased risk of being injured or killed in a tornado.
What states experiance tornadoes the most?
In the United States they have a section called Tornado Alley. There is also alot of helpful information on which areas in the US are at risk for Tornadoes and what to do in case of such an emergency at NOAA. See the related links below for this information.
How is a tornadoes predicted?
Not very. On a time scale of hours to days were can assess what general areas will be at risk for tornadoes, but we don't know what locations will be hit. On a time scale of minutes we can detect tornadoes and their precursors, but most of the time we can't tell where a tornado will touch down, how hard it will hit, or if it will change course.
What was the average risk for tornadoes on Feb 20th 2014?
It is unclear what is meant by the average risk. A large portion of the Mississippi and Ohio valleys was under a 2% or greater risk for tornadoes. About half of that area was under a 5% risk.
