well, it can come from a cold and warm front colliding with each other.

Anything non-solid can form a hurricane or tornado.

When you pull the plug after taking a bath, the water forms a mini-tornado as it drains through the hole. Watch a hot cup of tea/coffe, and you might see a tiny tornado formed by the steam.

Fire can form a tornado too. Check this video for example:

The physics of all this are quite simple. Anything that rises or descends (and is not solid like I already mentioned) is influenced by the earth's rotation. All things travel along with our planet's surface as it rotates around its axis. But because the earth is spherical, the rotation at the equator is the fastest, while near the Northern and Southern poles the rotation is very slow. This difference in the earth's rotation, in turn, causes rotation of fluid substances (air, water, steam, fire).

Wind is only a byproduct of the hurricane or tornado - they are two very different things as a tornado is usualy created and seen above land but the hurricane develops out at sea usually when 2 different wheather systems clash so in answer to your question. temperature and air pressure! Basicaly a thunderstorm is the main reason that both of these start.

particular, a twister does easily have greater effective winds than a typhoon does. a classification One typhoon has sustained winds of eighty 5 miles in keeping with hour. A twister has winds of 210 miles an hour or much greater, based one the tornadoes classification. a classification 5 twister has more suitable winds than a classification 5 typhoon. yet with a twister is predicated greater on length than wind speeds, although that is a ingredient too. a classification 5 twister could nicely be one mile in diameter!!

tornadoes don't really need water to form. Hurricanes always do.
