Do tornadoes always follow the rotation of the earth?
No. While most tornadoes rotate in a direction that matches earth's (clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern), a small percentage go against this. The origin of the spin in tornadoes is not directly related to earth's rotation. Most tornadoes also move in an easterly direction, but not always.

All tornadoes are dangerous. Wedge tornadoes are usually stronger and thus more dangerous than smaller tornadoes, though this is not always the case.
Do tornadoes usually happen during a thunderstorm?
Tornadoes always happen during thunderstorms. They cannot occur without them.
