I don't have a good sense of how to determine that the flap has opened up at speed except to listen for it, but if stationary, you can easily see it by shining a light into the right hand exhaust pipe. You can also hear it if under app control. You can also see the solenoid move if you're under the car. And yes, you can feel exhaust flow when open and much reduced when closed. And yes, if conditions are such that you would see steam, you can see it as well.
