No. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms. By definition a tornado must make contact with both the ground and the cloud base. However, small whirlwinds, such as dust devils, can form on cloudless days. These look somewhat like tornadoes, but are nowhere near as strong.
No, tornadoes can occur with or without clouds present. Tornadoes are a column of rapidly rotating air in contact with the ground, typically formed from severe thunderstorms. Clouds can indicate the presence of the necessary atmospheric conditions for tornado formation, but they are not a requirement.
Tornadoes are typically associated with severe thunderstorms, which are characterized by towering clouds known as cumulonimbus clouds. It is unlikely for a tornado to form without the presence of clouds, as tornadoes require specific atmospheric conditions and interactions that usually occur within a thunderstorm system.
Tornadoes are a product of severe thunderstorms, which take the form of cumulonimbus clouds.
Cumulonimbus clouds are capable of producing tornadoes, particularly when they are part of a severe thunderstorm system. The intense updrafts and downdrafts within cumulonimbus clouds can create the necessary conditions for tornado formation. When these conditions align, a tornado can develop and descend to the ground.
They don't need to be any color in particular. Though they are often green. The clouds near a tornado and even the tornado itself may appear orange if it occurs near sunset. Clouds near a tornado can also be gray or black.

Yes. Tornadoes form from strong thunderstorm which, of course, bring clouds.

In a tornado, cumulonimbus clouds are most commonly associated with severe weather and thunderstorms. However, it's the rotating updraft within the storm that causes the formation of a tornado, rather than specific types of clouds.
They don't need to be any color in particular. Though they are often green. The clouds near a tornado and even the tornado itself may appear orange if it occurs near sunset. Clouds near a tornado can also be gray or black.
Yes, tornadoes can form from thunderstorms that develop within large, moisture-rich clouds. The rotation and updrafts within these storm clouds can create the conditions necessary for tornado development.
Puffy clouds are called cumulus. These usually indicate good weather.
Not necessarily. A hole in the clouds in a strong thunderstorm could indicate a downdraft that can help produce a tornado or it could simply mean you're at the edge of the storm. Even if it is the former scenario, there is no guarantee a tornado will form.
None do. It is the other way around. Tornadoes form from cumulonimbus clouds.
Because only the the energy involved in a thunderstorm or developing thunderstorm is enough to form something as strong as a tornado.
