A tornado produces a funnel-shaped cloud.
A funnel cloud is a rotating, cone-shaped cloud that extends downward from a thunderstorm. While it is not considered a tornado until it touches the ground, a funnel cloud can still produce strong winds and hail. If a funnel cloud does touch down, it can cause the same type of damage as a tornado, including destruction of buildings, trees, and other structures.

It is overcast in Lancashire, England.
Cumulonimbus, because a cumulonimbus cloud is involved in almost all types of precipitation and other intense weather,
Mare's tail clouds are a type of cirrus cloud, characterized by thin, wispy strands high in the sky. They are often seen as a sign of approaching atmospheric instability and potential weather changes.
A rotating column of air that does not touch the ground is typically referred to as a funnel cloud. Funnel clouds are associated with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, and they can form from rotating updrafts within the storm's cloud base. If a funnel cloud reaches the ground, it becomes a tornado.

the tornado kind
Before a tornado hits the ground, a rotating column of air forms in the storm cloud known as a funnel cloud. This funnel cloud extends towards the ground, and once it makes contact, the tornado is then officially considered to have touched down.
Tornadoes form during thunderstorms, usually an especially severe kind called a supercell. The storms take the form of anvil-shaped cumulonimbus clouds. The sides of these storms sometimes look like stacked plates. However, if you are observing a tornado, you will be under the storm, and will not be able to observe this structure. The area of intrest will revolve around the wall cloud, which is a rotating mass of clouds that hangs below the main cloud base. The tornado itself will produce a funnel, which may be cone, needle, rope, or column shaped. However, not all tornadoes come with a wall cloud or condensation funnel, and these features, even if present, may be obscured by rain.
A violent windstorm that often takes the shape of a funnel is called a tornado.
Signs of a potential tornado include rotation in the clouds, a persistent lowering of the cloud base, and a hole opening up in the clouds near the back of a storm (these are all potential precursors). Other signs include a funnel or con shaped extension of the cloud base, and swirling debris on the ground, indicating that a tornado or funnel cloud has formed.
cumulonimbus clouds
When a funnel cloud touches the ground, it becomes a tornado. Tornadoes are characterized by rotating columns of air extending from a cloud to the ground. They can be incredibly destructive and are classified based on the damage they cause using the Enhanced Fujita Scale.
No. Tornadoes themselves are a kind of violently rotating windstorm. The cloud of a tornado, known as the funnel, is found in most tornadoes but not all.
Spiders that build tunnel-shaped webs are known as funnel weavers or funnel-web spiders. They construct a funnel-shaped retreat where they wait for prey to become ensnared in the silk strands leading to the tunnel.
nimbus in latin is a rain cloud, a cloud, a cloudburst, a shower Nimbus Latin, related to Nebula, nephele, properly vapour, cloud), in art and archeology signifies a shining light implying great dignity. Closely related are the halo, glory, and aureole. EDIT: Nimbus: Literally it is a violentl- pouring rain-storm. The meaning was then transferred to a could that produced such a storm: a dark raincould. From that meaning there stemmed many more: any dark cloud, anything that was shaped like a cloud, a kind headband worn by women (maybe shaped like a cloud), and a vessel for sprinkling perfume (so it poured out perfume like a cloud poured out rain).
