When we had the tornado here a couple years ago there weren’t any warnings for one until it was on the ground. Not even funnel cloud watches.
Took people posting photos online and all of a sudden the warning came out.
Then there’s the storms they say have good rotation and send out warnings and they look like little puff balls as they go by with hardly a gust.
They do seem to be able to tell wind gusts and rotation but can’t really tell easily if a tornado forms or touches down. You usually have a couple days of them talking to locals and witnesses to see if anything did touch down. Can’t say that they seem to be the easiest weather event to predict.
