A tornado is not necessarily associated with a front at all. Tornadoes will often form along or ahead of a cold front or dry line, and can occasionally form along a wamr front.

One common area where tornadoes may form is Larko's triangle, which is near the center of a low pressure system between the cold front, the warm front, and the first isobar.

Tornadoes will often form in the outerbands of a tropical cyclone, where no fronts are involved.
