Tornadoes don't "know" anything. They are not alive and cannot think or feel.

They are a physical phenomenon governed by thermodynamics and fluid dynamics. Certain atmospheric conditions including instability, the presence of a front or other storm system, and strong wind shear create an environment in which tornadoes are likely.
