Best Answer

Nothing in particular "attracts" tornadoes in a literal sense. However, they are most likely to form under a certain set of weather conditions. In most basic terms, when thunderstorms encounter wind shear, or differences in speed and direction with altitude, they can start rotating and, in turn, produce tornadoes. Thunderstorms normally develop when warm, moist air exists beneath layer of cold air. The strongest storms, those most likely to produce tornadoes, most often form along fronts, when air masses with different properties collide.

Why tornadoes rotates circle?

Tornadoes rotate in a circe due to electricity. The particles in the air have a nuetral charge and when two places in the electromagnetic field come close with opposite charges, they both charge and repel the air particles. The nuetral particles drifts towards the positively charged EM field which charges it positively. Once it is charged, the negative EM field attracts it and begins to charge it negatively. Once it is charged negatively the positive EM field attracts it again. This cycle will produce a circular motion which it what causes tornadoes to spin.
