Tornadoes require wind shear and thunderstorms (which can form under a number of circumstances) to occur.
Typically the strong thunderstorms needed for tornadoes to occur form along a dry line or cold front. Tornadoes very often form where a cold front and dry line intersect.

What layer of the atmosphere does global warming occur in?
Weather patterns are mostly limited to the troposphere.
How are a tornado and a flood alike?
Both are natural disasters that result primarily from weather. Both can occur sddenly and can be very destructive.
Why are weather patterns important?
They can help us understand how the Earth works, and predict when storms and other events will occur.
Is there snow in a tornado?
No. Tornadoes occur during thunderstorms when the weather is warm. They often occur in a rain-free portion of a storm, but rain and often hail are generally nearby.
When did tornado ally occur?
