TeachMeFinance.com - explain TVS TVS The term 'TVS' as it applies to the area of the weather can be defined as ' Tornado Vortex Signature- Doppler radar signature in the radial velocity field indicating intense, concentrated rotation - more so than a mesocyclone. Like the mesocyclone, specific criteria involving strength, vertical depth, and time continuity must be met in order for a signature to become a TVS. Existence of a TVS strongly increases the probability of tornado occurrence, but does not guarantee it. A TVS is not a visually observable feature'.
