Tornado Research Aims To Understand And Predict Storms
Weather experts at the University of Oklahoma and the Weather Bureau discuss studying tornado dynamics to predict formation and issue early warnings. They note progress in modeling environmental conditions, the goal of public alerts, and possible cloud seeding to prevent formation. Tornado paths vary from 20 to 40 miles up to 300 miles, with historic Midwest losses.
