Is non moving cold air and when moving warm air collides does it make a thunderstorm?

No. Usually, when warm air moves against a stationarymass of cold air, the warm air will gently move over the colder air and a light, long lasting rain shower will take place. If a moving mass of cold air violently shoves warmer air upward, then the rains are usually more intense.


Is wind related to air temperature and air pressure?

A low pressure region should mean that the region is low in air. The air from the surrounding region (which is comparatively at higher pressure) moves into this low pressure region creating a wind. So, wind is the movement of air from a high pressure region into a low pressure region. Warm air is lighter than cold air. Warm air being lighter moves upward creating a low pressure region. So, wind could also be a movement of air from cooler to warmer region.
