Cumulus clouds can develop into cumulonimbus clouds, which are usually thunderstorms. All thunderstorms contain an updraft, which is a rising air current. Under the right conditions this updraft can start rotating, becoming a mesocyclone. The thunderstorm is now called a supercell. Sometimes the bottom of the mesocyclone can tighten and intensify to produce a tornado.
