Can you point me to a resource/webpage/etc that would show a novice like me how to look at a radar map and pick out a tornado? People talk about hook, etc, but I have no idea what to look for, and it doesn't make any sense to me.

Just saw that. Flooded.

They sandbagged most businesses in low lying areas in Cola in anticipation of flooding.
