They are formed by the solar winds from the sun. The radiation of the sun causes these massive storms, many many times bigger than our ones. The Great Red spot on Jupiter is the largest storm and has been raging away for 300 years. You could fit two Earths in the Great Red spot which is 40,000km across.
