What do tornadoes look like on radar screens?

Tornadoes on radar screens appear as a hook echo, which is a curved, hook-shaped extension on the end of a rotating storm cell. This pattern indicates strong rotation within the storm and potential tornado formation. Tornadoes themselves do not actually appear as distinct entities on radar screens but are inferred based on radar signatures.
