This contest was designed to provide an educational experience in tornado forecasting through an objective, cooperative, and competitive environment. This is achieved by bringing together forecasters from all walks of life within the field of meteorology, to discuss/refine their tornado forecasting techniques, submit forecasts, and receive verification. The ultimate goal of the contest is to help current and future professionals improve public safety.

Forecasts are submitted every weekday (M-F) from March 24th - June 13th. We will be having a practice week from March 17 - 24th this year! Verification for each forecast day will be completed 5 days after the event and will be reverified after 2 weeks. Scores are based mainly on the distance between the closest report/damage and your forecast point, with some other ways to earn additional points. The higher the score, the better. For additional information, please visit the Rules and Scoring page.
We would like to acknowledge and thank these businesses for taking interest in our project and providing countless resources to our participants
