Cumulonimbus incus, which has an obvious anvil top. Only very strong ones, called supercells, spawn tornadoes.
Cumulonimbus icnus is the most likely type of storm cloud to produce a tornado. These cumulonimbus clouds are often supercells.
Tornadoes can form from any cumulonimbus cloud, but they usually form from Cumulonimbus incus (heaped rain cloud with anvil) with a rotating updraft called a mesocyclone. The type of storm this rotating cumulonimbus cloud brings is a strong thunderstorm called a supercell, the thunderstorm most likely to form a tornado
cumulonimbus clouds
Tornadoes often form in a type of cumulonimbus cloud called a wall cloud. Look up what a cumulonimbus cloud looks like on Google images.
Tornadoes are produced by cumulonimbus clouds. Often a wall cloud appears near the base of a cumulonimbus before a tornado forms.
Tornadoes are produces by cumulonimbus clouds. Often a wall cloud and/or funnel cloud are seen before or during a tornado.
There are several types of cloud involved in tornado formation at different stages. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms, which take the form of cumulonimbus clouds, though only a fraction of thunderstorms produce tornadoes. The rotation in a thunderstorm that has the potential to produce a tornado is often marked by a wall cloud. Finally, the developing tornado itself is usually marked by a funnel cloud.
Cumulonimbus is a type of cloud often associated with intense weather and thunderstorms.
First. A wall cloud is not a cumulonimbus clouds, but is a smaller cloud that extends from the base of a cumulonimbus. Tornadoes often form from wall clouds.

if there is just a cloud that is rotating then its a funnel cloud, once it makes contact with the ground its a tornado. the part that looks like cloud is called the condensation funnel.
The cloud starts turning clockwise then turns into a funnel
The funnel of a tornado itself is a called a funnel cloud, though this term is usually reserved for when it does not touch the ground. The funnel cloud often emerges from a low-hanging cloud called a wall cloud, which is attatched to the base of a cumulonimbus cloud.
The clouds that are often associated with producing disastrous weather are cumulonimbus clouds. They can produce everything from heavy rain to lightning to hail, gusts, and even tornadoes.
