Advances in meteorological science, such as computer modeling and Doppler radar, have significantly increased forecasting accuracy. These tools allow the Storm Prediction Center to issue timely warnings using real-time data. Communities have become more resilient with better building codes, storm shelters, and public education.
To further reduce the impact of severe weather, collaboration between agencies and investment in resilient infrastructure, such as updated building codes and stormwater systems, are essential. Global data sharing and emergency preparedness initiatives also play a key role in enhancing response capabilities.
