Is cirrus associated with thunderstorms?

Can cumulonimbus clouds carry strong winds?
Yes, cumulonimbus clouds can carry strong winds, especially within the downdrafts associated with the cloud. These downdrafts can produce gusty winds that can be strong and erratic during thunderstorms.
What causes the strong winds associated with tornadoes and thunderstorms?
The strong winds in a tornado are causes by the steep pressure gradient surrounding it, with intense low pressure at the tornado's center. Strong winds in thunderstorms are usually caused by rain cooled air falling rapidly to ground level in an even called a downburst.
