Tornadoes occur during severe thunderstorms, typically supercells. So you will typically see thick, often very dark storm clouds. The clouds may take on unusual colors, such as green, yellow, or turquoise. The cloud base itself may appear ragged, and there will usually be a rotating lowering of the cloud base called a wall cloud. The tornado will descend from the wall cloud. See the links for examples of wall clouds.
