Sometimes. A tornado that has a well defined funnel or debris cloud that occurs during that day in the rain-free part of a thunderstorm can be seen from quite a distance. In some cases a tornado may have little or not funnel or debris cloud, rendering it nearly invisible. Other tornadoes may be obscured by heavy rain or hidden in the dark of night.
