The late afternoon and early evening is generally when the lower atmosphere is warmest, due to heating from the sun and therefore when the atmosphere as a whole is unstable. The more unstable the atmosphere, the greater the potential for thunderstorms, especially strong ones. Strong thunderstorms are needed to produce tornadoes.
