The Doppler radar used in weather forecasting measures the direction and speed, or velocity, of objects such as drops of precipitation. This is called the Doppler Effect and is used to determine whether movement in the atmosphere is horizontally toward or away from the radar, which aides in weather forecasting. The radar was named for J. Christian Doppler, an Austrian physicist, who was the first to articulate the reason an approaching train's whistle will sound higher than the whistle as the train moves away.
Doppler radar can be used to detect tornadoes. Aside from that tornadoes are tracked based on eyewitness reports.

Radars operate in the radio end of the em spectrum.
well radio waves used in radar travel at the speed of light in a funnel shape pattern the range of radar depends on type of radar and what frequency it uses The ARPA Long-Range Tracking and Instrumentation Radar (ALTAIR) was developed and built at Roi-Namur in the Reagan Test Site between 1968 and 1970. and can detect objects in space so that gives u an idea of how far they can goas radio waves travel the speed of light 186,282 miles
It's a type of radar so I think it's only used to specify if radar in question is that type or doppler effect, a scientific phenomenon.

A Doppler radar is a specialized radar that makes use of the Doppler effect to produce velocity data about objects at a distance. It does this by beaming a microwave signal towards a desired target and listening for its reflection, then analyzing how the frequency of the returned signal has been altered by the object's motion. This variation gives direct and highly accurate measurements of the radial component of a target's velocity relative to the radar. Doppler radars are used in aviation, sounding satellites, meteorology, police speed guns,[1]radiology, and bistatic radar (surface to air missile).Partly because of its common use by television meteorologists in on-air weather reporting, the specific term "Doppler Radar" has erroneously become popularly synonymous with the type of radar used in meteorology. Most modern weather radars use the pulse-doppler technique to examine the motion of precipitation, but it is only a part of the processing of their data.The Doppler radar has also been applied in healthcare, such as fall detection and fall risk assessment, for nursing or clinic purpose.So, while these radars use a highly specialized form of doppler radar, the term is much broader in its meaning and its applications.

Temperature, Doppler radar, and wind direction are some of the types of information used to predict tornadoes.
