Canada’s Tornado Surge and Warning Woes | Canada News

Canada’s tornado season is exploding this year—with 124 warnings already issued by mid-July, more than all of last year and nearly four times what was seen in 2018. Seventy-four confirmed tornadoes have touched down, fueling both awe and anxiety. Forecasters are deliberately over-warning to avoid missing a storm, even if it means some false alarms. Storm chasers and residents alike are bracing for “warning fatigue” as alerts pile up for storms that never become twisters. While radar and models help, tornadoes remain rare among thunderstorms, forcing warnings to cover wider areas than necessary. Officials say the system is improving, and the goal remains clear: warn everyone, but not so often that people tune out when it really matters.
