To a limited degree. It is possible to detedct a tornado and its immediate precursors with Doppler radar, but this cannot tell when the tornado will touch down, how long it will last, or if it will change course. Beyond this, weather conditions can tell if a given areas is at risk from tornadoes on a given day, but cannot tell where indivitdual tornadoes will strike.
