I used to live in Tornado Alley... a tornado watch means that the weather conditions mean it is very likely that a tornado will form in an area. A tornado warning means a tornado has touched down nearby.

How early can a tornadoes be predicted?

Tornadoes are very difficult to predict. The possibility of tornadoes occurring can be predicted hours ahead of time based on general weather conditions . In this case a tornado watch is issued. But within a large area there is no way of known with any certainty where or when a tornado will strike or if one will occur at all. If a tornado is occurring or a storm may soon produce a tornado, a tornado warning is issued for an area about the size of a county. Even then, meteorologists cannot be certain where or when a possible tornado will strike.
