Although tornado forecasting has remarkably improved over the last two decades with advanced forecasting techniques, weather satellites, numerical forecast models and Doppler weather radar, there is much about tornado forecasting that still remains a mystery.
The new early-warning system brings this approach right up to date, by integrating many different climate-forecasting computer models that couple together information about how the atmosphere and the oceans combine to create the weather.
