Tornadoes typically form in the rear half of a supercell. So tornadoes are often preceded by cloudiness rain, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail.
The clouds in a tornadic storm sometimes appear black or greenish.
If you can see the tornado
There is no particular sky color that indicates a tornado is coming. It is often reported that the clouds look green before and during tornado. But this does not necessarily indicate a tornado, nor is it necessary for a tornado to form. The clouds in a tornadic storm may also appear gray or black.
look at the news or check out the NWS website to see if there are any tornado watches or warnings. or if the alarms are going off and you are hiding and the rain stopes really quick that means its right there happen to me 3 times
They are often dark gray or even black, but not always. In terms of color they could look like fairly ordinary storm clouds.
This depends on how powerful the tornado was.
I'd be looking for safe shelter.

Air density inside a tornado is about 5-10% less than that of the air surrounding it.
first look on the weather channel if they are talking about super cell thunderstorms there is a high possibility for a tornado.... go look outside if the sky is dark and a greenish color than that's another sign. hope i helped!!
yes!
No. If a tornado is coming you will not have time to board up your windows.
It can be purple or any other color. The color of the lightning has nothing to do with whether or not a tornado is coming.
There is no way of knowing when the next tornado will be in any given place.
Air is continuously moving up in a tornado. This means that air surrounding the tornado must move in to replace the rising air.
The air pressure in a tornado is lower than that of its surrounding but the pressure difference varies with the strength of the tornado. The greater the pressure difference, the stronger the tornado. The greatest pressure drop recorded from a tornado was 100 millibars or about 10%.
There is no way of knowing that.
