rain and hail
Yes, Tornadoes are produce by thunderstorms which form from cumulonimbus clouds.
Lightning
No, stratus clouds only produce relatively light rain. Cumulonimbus produce the heaviest rain (thunderstorms).
No. Status clouds can bring rain but not thunderstorms and certainly not tornadoes. Cirrus clouds are sometimes torn away from thunderstorms, but they do not cause them. Tornadoes and the thunderstorms that produce them are associate with cumulonimbus clouds.
Yes. Hail is produce by thunderstorms, which form from cumulonimbus clouds.
