RADAR stands for RAdio Detection And Ranging. It can detect anything that will reflect its radio pusles. It is used to monitor airspace around airports, locate and track satellites in space, monitor atmospheric water density for weather stations... Many very useful functions.

Meteorologists rely largely on Doppler radar and eyewitness reports.

RADAR does not predict storms, it detects and tracks them after they form. However meteorologists can use this tracking information to predict where the storms may move to more accurately than they could without this information, allowing better warning times.

Yes. Meteorologists track tornadoes via doppler radar and reports from storm spotters.
The main tool meteorologists use is Doppler radar, which can detect a tornado or the rotation in a storm that can produce them. There are also spotters, who report sightings of tornadoes and other weather hazards.
Radar is used to detect concentrations of water droplets in the atmosphere, which tells meteorologists where rainfall, snow and hail are occurring.
Meteorologists use doppler radar as well as eyewitness reports from storm spotters and law enforcement to track tornadoes
Doppler radar
The use of radar lets meteorologists see 'hook shaped' cloud formations. Hooked shaped area of precipitation show that rotation is happening in the atmosphere. Smaller tornadoes might not have the 'hook' signature. Meteorologists also use Doppler radar to watch for areas that have winds moving in circular motion. If you are on the ground and do not have radar, then you can watch approaching clouds and look for a wall of approaching dark clouds, and high winds
