An incredible difference. The only similarity between the two is that they are made natural causes. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air produced by a thunderstorm.

Do rain and wind have a connection with tornadoes?

Yes. Tornadoes occur during thunderstorms. Rain plays a significant role in the thermodynamic processes of a thunderstorm can help determine whether or not a storm will produce a tornado. A thunderstorm cannot develop the potential for tornadoes if there is not enough vertical wind shear, or difference in wind speed and direction with altitude. A tornado is itself a vortex of very powerful winds.
