A watch is to tell you that one could form and a warning is that one has formed and could be heading toward you.

A TORNADO WATCH: means that conditions are favorable for producing a particular weather event, but that it has not formed yet. Watches alert the public that they need to pay closer attention than usual to the weather, just to be safe. A tornado watch is issued when atmospheric conditions could cause tornadoes to form, although none have formed yet.
A TORNADO WARNING: means that a particular weather event has formed and that it threatens the area under the warning. A tornado warning means that a tornado is actually present and moving in the warn vicinity. Residents should take immediate shelter in a tornado warning.

Warning means that a tornado has either been spotted by a person or radar is indicating rotation in a cell which most like is a tornado. A watch just means that condition are favorable for a tornado to develop. Watches are issued many hours in advance of a storm's arrival. Warning is really bad and you better take cover immedietely

A tornado watch is when atmospheric conditions are good for a tornado, and there may, or not be one, but people should be alert and ready.
A tornado warning is when a tornado has been spotted in the area, and people should take shelter immediately.

A watch occurs when conditions are present which are known to potentially cause tornadoes to form. A warning occurs when a tornado has been sighted or is seen on weather radar.

A Watch means that conditions are favorable for the formation of tornadoes, Such as two streams of cold and warm air converging in fronts in the sky.
A Warning means there is a tornado on the ground, (or forming in the clouds) within your county and take cover immediately.
