Just about all of the energy that drives weather comes from the sun. The sun heats the surface of the Earth and bodies of water, making the air in some areas hot and humid. Under the right conditions that hot, humid air can rise and the moisture can condense to form thunderstorms. Thunderstorms, particularly a type called supercells, are what cause tornadoes.
