No. Back in 1925, when this tornado ocurred, there were no tornado waatches or warnings. In fact, meterologists were forbidden to mention tornadoes in their forecasts for fear of starting a panic.

As a result, the Tri-State tornado struck without warning. Because of the wide funnel and low cloud base, many people who saw it approaching did not even realize it was a tornado.
