It depends on the temperature of the air around the cloud. A cumulus cloud is formed by warm air rising into a layer of cooler air, so the base of the cloud will be warmer and the air will get colder toward the top of the cloud.
If water vapor condenses out of the air as it rises in the cloud, this will warm up the air in the middle of the cloud.
Thunderstorms form in cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, towering clouds with great vertical development. These clouds can reach high into the atmosphere and produce heavy rainfall, lightning, thunder, and sometimes hail or tornadoes.
Cumulonimbus clouds cann occur at any time of year, but are most common in the summer.
Thunderstorms
Cumulonimbus clouds.
Cumulonimbus clouds form when the atmosphere is unstable. One factor in an unstable atmosphere is a rapid temperature drop with increasing height. When the sun can shine directly on the ground it heats the lowest part of the atmosphere, which can lead to instability. Conversely, clouds block some of the sun's light from reaching the ground and tend to make the atmosphere more stable, which makes it harder for cumulonimbus clouds to form.
No. Cumulonimbus clouds are what form thunderstorms.
Yes, Tornadoes are produce by thunderstorms which form from cumulonimbus clouds.

Tornadoes mostly form from cumulonimbus clouds. :D
Yes, cumulus clouds can develop into cumulonimbus clouds through a process called cloud growth. Cumulonimbus clouds are larger and taller versions of cumulus clouds that can bring thunderstorms and severe weather.
