Yes. Tornadoes happen fairly frequently in the U.S.
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.
The worst tornado in U.S. history was the Tri-State tornado of March 18, 1925. The tornado first formed north of Ellington, Missouri. The tornado devastated numerous towns in Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana along a path 219 miles long.
