Each year more than 1,200 tornadoes take place in the United States. These destructive and awe-inspiring events are notoriously difficult to predict.

The resources in this collection cover the past, present, and future of tornado science and forecasting. Through research and technical advances, we can now better predict and prepare for these once unknowable phenomena.
