The formation of a thunderstorm requires an area of unstable air, its motion due to convection currents. The moisture in this heated air will be carried aloft and condense, releasing heat to power the thunderstorm.
A thunderstorm needs a lifting force, and moisture in the lower to mid-levels of the atmosphere.

What condition is required for all thunderstorms?
For starters, the thing you will need for all storms is Low Air Pressure. So you will always need this for all thunderstorms.
Is a rotating updraft or supercell required for all thunderstorms to form?
No. All thunderstorms require an updraft, but that updraft does not need to rotate. A supercell is not a rotating updraft, but rather a particular kind of thunderstorm with a rotating updraft.
Do all tornadoes have to have rain?
No. Many tornadoes form in a rain-free portion of their parent thunderstorms. Some tornadoes form with low-precipitation supercells, which produce little or no rain.

Yes. All tornadoes form in thunderstorms.
Has a thunderstorm ever turned into a tornado?
Thunderstorms do not turn in tornadoes, but they can produce them. In fact all tornadoes form in thunderstorms.
Do low cumulonimbus clouds bring both tornadoes and thunderstorms?
Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds, but they don't have to be low. Some of these thunderstorms can produce tornadoes, but not all. A thunderstorm is the only thing that can produce a tornado. Tornadoes form best from low-based thunderstorms.
How do most thunderstorms form?
By all of the energy in the air from the clouds and things like that.
Is a tornado caused by a thunder storm?
Yes. All tornadoes form from thunderstorms.
What cloud is involved in a supercell?
As with all thunderstorms, a supercell takes the form off a cumulonimbus cloud.
How is thunder related to tornadoes?
All tornadoes form in thunderstorms and so are typically accompanied by thunder and lightning.
Thunderstorms formed over land may also produce a?
Thunderstorms over land can produce tornadoes, microburst or dust storm. Though all but the dust storm can form over water as well.
What should you claim on w2 form?
