AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes a 2017 federal weather law that set up a program to improve tornado warnings. It would require the Under Secretary in charge of the program to make sure new tornado forecasts, predictions, and warnings are developed. The work would focus on three areas: fast-developing storm systems such as derechos, places that have not historically had tornadoes, and tornadoes that happen in the evening or at night.
