tech speak or technobabble?

an article in the LA times says, WRT the possibility of more tornadoes in the midwest:

“Rapid intensification is expected given the favorable thermodynamics along with shear profiles very supportive of updraft rotation,” the service noted on one of its forecasts [sic] for the areas including parts of about a dozen states.

does that bit of jargon actually inform you, or is it just fancy looking verbiage, that could easy be replaced by references to dilithium crystals or neutron flows? (there are, i think, four people on my friendslist™ that i would expect to understand what it means and why.)
