There are somewhat different sets of conditions for each of them.
Thunderstorms require an unstable atmosphere. This instability occurs when, if you lift a parcel of air from near the ground, it will become warmer than its surroundings and continue to rise. This generally occurs when the air near the ground is warm and moist. Greater instability generally means stronger thunderstorms. You also need some sort of lifting mechanism to start the air rising. This lifting mechanism can come in the form of a frontal system (cold front, warm front, or dry line), a land or sea breeze, a mountain blocking the wind, a low pressure area, and even the gust front of another thunderstorm. Regardless of the trigger, as the air rises, it cools. Moisture in the air condenses, forming clouds and rain and releasing heat, keeping the air warmer than its surroundings. This causes the air to rise even higher, forming a towering cumulonimbus cloud. Collisions of water droplets and ice crystals in the cloud generate lighting, which in turn produces thunder.
So, in summary, thunderstorms need:
The formation of hurricanes and tornadoes both stem from thunderstorms, but follow different roots.
Hurricanes usually start off as tropical disturbances. These are disorganized low-pressure areas that produce showers and thunderstorms. When one of these disturbances moves over warm ocean water, the plentiful warm, moist air fuels the storms, causing them to strengthen. The strengthening updrafts or upward-moving air currents of the thunderstorms lowers the pressure in the disturbance, causing it to pull in more warm, moist air, further strengthening the system. As this happens, the Coriolis effect, a consequence of Earth's spin, causes the system to begin rotating. If wind shear is not too strong, this will cause the system to organize, allowing it to draw in air more effeciently. From here, the system will continue to organize until it becomes a hurricane.
So, in short, hurricanes need
Tornadoes typically form from a kind of powerful, rotating thunderstorm called a supercell, though they can also form from rotation in squall lines and sometimes other thunderstorm varieties. These storms typically occur near fronts in the middle latitudes, where large temperature contrasts and strong upper level winds can lead to very intense thunderstorms. At this point, strong wind shear, or differences in wind speed and direction with altitude, sets the storms rotating and alters the circulation, making them more efficient. In a supercell, and area of rotation and low pressure, called a mesocyclone, develops in the updraft. If conditions are right, a downdraft can wrap around the mesocyclone, tightening and intensifying it and bringing the rotation to the ground, forming a tornado.
So, in short, tornadoes need.
Thunderstorms can only develop when certain conditions pertain.
-Unstable atmospheric conditions (The environmental lapse rate (ELR) is greater than the SALR(saturated adiabatic lapse rate) through a depth of 10,000 feet and extending several thousands feet above the freezing level.
-Moisture (There is sufficient water vapour to form and maintain cloud and to provide early saturation so that instability occurs rapidly)
-Trigger action (There is a trigger or a lifting action)
Three things needed for a tornado to form are instability to provide the energy for thunderstorms, some sort of lifting mechanism to trigger those storms, and wind shear to set those storms rotating.
The two ingredients necessary to create a tornado are air instability and wind shear. Instability refers to the presence of hot air near the Earth's surface and cool air aloft, and wind shear refers to the weather phenomenon that exists when wind speed increases with height and direction changes with height. The instabi;lity powers thunderstorms while the wind shear gives these storms that rotation they need to produce tornadoes.
Usually a collision of warm moist air with cooler and/or drier air is neeeded to create thunderstorms. A third condition called wind shear is needed for them to produce tornadoes.
Three things needed to produce a tornado are an unstable atmosphere, wind shear, and twisting int the atmosphere.
they need warm water of at least 80º Fahrenheit,high humidity with moist air, light winds, and very warm surface temperatures.

No, a tornado cannot form without a thunderstorm. A tornado needs the crossing winds of two air masses to provide rotation in order for a tornado to form. Tornadoes do not form from convection thunderstorms, but only from air mass thunderstorms.
For a tornado to form, you need three main ingredients: warm, moist air close to the ground; cooler, drier air above it; and strong wind shear (a change in wind speed or direction with altitude). These conditions create a rotating updraft that can develop into a tornado under the right circumstances.
Tornadoes are most likely to form in regions known as Tornado Alley in the central United States, as well as in other parts of the world where warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico meets cooler, drier air from the north or west. These conditions create the necessary atmospheric instability for tornado formation.
A tornado is a violent swirling funnel that usually happens in very intense thunderstorms. They form when thunderstorms start rotating due to interactions with wind shear. This rotation then tightens and intensifies to form a tornado.
Since a tornado is a form of weather, it would be studied in the field of meteorology.
The basic ingredients needed for tornadoes are:Instability, which is needed for thunderstorms to form.A lifting mechanism to trigger storm development, usually in the form of a cold front.Wind shear, which sets the thunderstorm rotating.One the storm develops and has a well-defined rotation you need a downdraft to turn the rotation into a tornado.
There is no particular sky color that indicates a tornado is coming. It is often reported that the clouds look green before and during tornado. But this does not necessarily indicate a tornado, nor is it necessary for a tornado to form. The clouds in a tornadic storm may also appear gray or black.
Partially. A tornado warning means that a tornado is likely to form or already has formed.
well i think a tornado can form anywhere
No. A tornado warning means that a tornado is likely to form or has already been spotted.
a tornado in the form of fire
No. An F5 is the strongest tornado that is able to form.
Yes. A tornado watch simply means that general conditions are favorable for tornadoes to form. A tornado warning means that a tornado has been detected or may form at any moment.
They form in Tornado Alley for a couple of reasons. One of them is because of the weather. It is humid there. But, tornadoes can also form outside of Tornado Alley. They can form anymore!
a tornado in the form of fire
There is no such thing as an electric tornado.
No, tornadoes typically form from thunderstorms with wind speeds of 40 miles per hour or higher. A 10-mile-an-hour wind speed is too weak to generate the necessary conditions for a tornado to develop.
