If a Tornado Warning is issued, which system does the National Weather Service utilize in order to warn people in the warning area of the possibility of an impending tornado?
A) Local Warning System
B) Emergency Alert System
C) Severe Warning System
D) Emergency Dissemination System
Here's todays WT-A...
C) Changes In Barometric Pressure Observed Within The Storm
The National Weather Service may issue a Tornado Warning for a specific area based on all of the following criteria EXCEPT what?
Your Answer: Changes In Barometric Pressure Observed Within The Storm
The National Weather Service is very cautious when issuing a Tornado Warning, because this is one of the most urgent and serious warnings. The National Weather Service monitors wind shear observed by Doppler Radar to determine if a severe thunderstorm has enough rotation to produce a tornado. The National Weather Service also considers information relayed by trained weather spotters and local law enforcement officers in determining if a Tornado Warning should be issued or not.

A) Reports From Local Law Enforcement
B) Strong Rotation Indicated By Doppler Radar

D) Trained Weather Spotter Reports Of A Tornado
YVW! Glad to hear you did!...))
G'evening, Dave. Got'em! Thanks! GL 2 U!!!
Here's todays WT-A...
C) Special Weather Statement
When a region is threatened by a strong thunderstorm, but the storm fails to meet the criteria for a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, the National Weather Service usually issues this alert.
Your Answer: Special Weather Statement
Although the storm does not meet the criteria for a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, it is still a dangerous situation. These storms can still produce very heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, wind gusts up to forty or fifty miles per hour, and small hail. It is important to take shelter in a sturdy structure during any thunderstorm.
