It can be people messing around, setting tinder on fire. The flames then spread from tree to tree. If there is no wind, it is easier to contain.
Energy from the Sun causes wind.
The causes of the Somerset floods is global warming.
It is bumping into the lihosphere
a pulling motion causes a normal fault
it mainly causes malaria

No. Tornadoes are caused by thunderstorms. Intense fires can create vortices called firewhirls but these are not considered tornadoes.
Large numbers of high yield nuclear weapons are detonated.This ignites enormous firestorms in many forests.Soot from these firestorms rises into Stratosphere, where it stays for months to years, blocking out sunlight all over the world.Without sunlight the earth cools dramatically.Result: a winter that might last many years before temperatures rise again.
They get far away and wait for it to burn itself out. There is no sense in putting anyone's life at risk to prevent trees from burning.

There is no way to predict accurately when a firestorm will occur. However, it is reasonable to expect a firestorm in mid-summer, especially during a period of protracted high temperatures, e.g. a heatwave. Firestorms are more likely to occur after a wet winter, which causes extensive vegetation growth in the early stages of spring, followed by several months of little or no rain, and when there has been no rain for some time after that. This causes the new-growth vegetation to dry out, making the tinder-dry countryside very, very easily ignited by lightning, accident or arsonists.
There is some question as to whether it was the starvation and associated disease, the conventional bombing of industry in major cities and the associated firestorms that destroyed so many of the residences, or the nuclear devices dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
There are events known as firestorms, where a fire becomes so large that it creates winds that make the fire larger yet. Such as fire can consume a large city, and have flames over 1000 ft high. Normally associated with wartime aerial bombing.
Lancaster heavy bombers created firestorms in German cities with concentrated incendiary bombs. These bombing attacks caused significant loss of life. Additionally, the British Spitfires and Hurricane fighters were a potent weapon in the Battle of Britain.
Dramatic cooling of much of the earth expected when a major nuclear war causes firestorms injecting large amounts of soot high in the stratosphere, where it can stay for decades. This soot shades the earth from sunlight making it dark and cold 24 hours a day until the soot eventually falls back to the lower atmosphere an rains out. If this dark cold period did last for decades it would stop most food production and modern life would become effectively impossible, even ignoring the damage due to the war.
