The National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) is responsible for monitoring and studying tornadoes and other severe weather. Activity i also monitored by the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) and the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).
Tornado activity in the U.S. is monitored by branches of the National Weather Service.
Tornadoes activity is monitored largely using a network of Doppler radars. In the U.S. those radars are owned and operated by the National Weather Service, which is an agency of the federal government.
In the region known as "Tornado Alley," (Norman, Okahoma) is located the NSSL (the National Severe Storm Laboratory) the organization that study tornadoes. The NSSL focuses its action in three areas: Radar research and development. It includes initiatives such as weather radar, dual-polarized Doppler radar, and the National Weather Radar Testbed. It's an agency working to advance the development of new radar technologies, aiming integrated observations, predictions, and warnings of high-impact weather, which include tornadoes, heavy thunderstorms, and flash floods. Hazardous weather research. (Improves accuracy and amount of lead time of forecasts and warnings issued by the National Weather Service. ) Hydrometeorology research. Improves the work of the NWS's monitoring and predictions of floods and flash floods. The whole information is accessible by opening the related link below. Surveys to count and rate tornadoes are conducted by local offices of the National Weather Service. Records of tornado activity are kept by the Storm Prediction Center and National Climatic Data Center.
No particular sky color necessarily indicates tornado activity. It is commonly state that a greenish sky indicates a tornado, but it doesn't need to be gray for a tornado to occur, nor does a green sky necessarily mean there is a tornado, just a severe thunderstorm.

April May and June generally have the most tornado activity while December, January and February generally have the least.
