No. Tornadic thunderstorms are more common in spring and early summer. Late summer and fall are better associated with hurricanes.

Does weather cause tornadoes?
Yes. Tornadoes are a form of weather that develop during severe thunderstorms.
What type of weather conditions are dangerous in a tornado?
Tornadoes form during severe thunderstorms. Therefore they are usually accompanied by lightning and by heavy rain which can lead to flash floods, reduced visibility, and a risk of hydroplaning. These storms can also produce damaging non-tornadic winds and large hail.
Do tornadoes usually form from thunderclouds?
Tornadoes can only form during thunderstorms.
What is the normal air pressure during a thunderstorm?
Thunderstorms are usually associated with low pressure.
Do thunderstorms happen in Greenland?
Thunderstorms happen in Greenland occasionally. This is usually during summer when the ice sheets are being broken down which will cause turbulence.
Do tornadoes usually happen during a thunderstorm?
Tornadoes always happen during thunderstorms. They cannot occur without them.
Are there thunderstorms before a tornado?
Tornadoes occur during thunderstorms. In most cases, though not all the time, tornadoes develop in the rear portion of the parent storm. So in most cases, yes, you will experience thunderstorm conditions before a tornado hits. However, some tornadoes can develop at or near the leading edge of a line of thunderstorms.
When and where thunderstorms typically form?
Typically they form in rain forest usually during spring or summer.
Why do tornadoes usually take place during spring?
During spring warm air is moving in, but cold air is still present. When storm systems develop they produce collisions between these warm and cold air masses, resulting in thunderstorms. These storms can then produce tornadoes.
Does the entire sky have to be gray before a tornado?
No. Tornadoes often form near the back edge of a thunderstorm, and so part of the sky may be blue during a tornado. In tornadic and other severe thunderstorms, it is also not uncommon for the clouds to take on a greenish hue.
Why do thunderstorms occur during cold fronts?
Coldfronts occur when heavy cold air displaces lighter warm air, pushing it upward. Cumulus clouds form and usually grow into thunderstorms during cold fronts
Do tornadoes come from clouds and hurricanes?
Tornadoes develop during thunderstorms, which are themselves giant cumulonimbus clouds. Some tornadoes are produced by hurricanes, but most are not.
