Warm anc cold air colliding are not a direct cause of tornadoes, but they can be a step in the process. where they come from depends on the region the weater system is in. But normally the warm air comes from a warm part of the ocean while the cold air comes from a cold region. In the Central United States, for example, the warm air comes from the Gulf of Mexico while the cold air comes from Canada.
