Does a severe thunderstorm warning occur a tornado?

Most severe thunderstorms do not produce tornadoes. If a tornado is detected or it is believed a storm might produce one a tornado warning is issued, which is more serious than a severe thunderstorm warning. A thunderstorm that produces a tornado is automatically classified as severe even if other severe weather (damaging non-tornadic wind or large hail) does not occur.


Was there ever a pds tornado watch in a slight risk severe thunderstorm area?

There does not appear to be such an incident based on a look at available data. Such a situation is unlikely to arise, since the Storm Prediction Center is in charge of issuing both severe weather outlooks and tornado watches. If it saw fit to issue a PDS tornado watch, it would likely issue a moderate or high risk outlook as well.


What is a violent thunderstorm that can lead into dangerous tornado?

This is known as a supercell thunderstorm. Supercells are long-lived and rotating storms that have the potential to produce tornadoes due to the presence of a persistent rotating updraft called a mesocyclone. These storms are capable of producing severe weather and are closely monitored by meteorologists for their potential to produce tornadoes.

What is a severe weather alert?

The severe weather watch is when a group of meterologist decide that conditions are appropriate for an abnormally severe storm to occur. They will then alarm the public that it is likely for one of these storms to occur. Therefore, it is a good idea to be on the look out to prevent injury.
