There is currently a collaborative field program going on called TORUS - Targeted Observations by Radars and UAS of Supercells. Texas Tech University, Oklahoma University, Colorado University, University of Nebraska, NOAA and the National Severe Storms Labroratory are all working to gather mobile radar observations and in situ data collection of supercell storms (storms with rotating updrafts-the most prolific producers of tornadoes).
The NOAA Hurricane Hunter, RAVEN unmanned aircraft, OU and NSSL mobile mesonets, and TTU mobile radars are pictured here.
