Since hot air is lighter than cold air the flame moves upward. There is still the radiant heat from fire which is not subject to that rule and can spread fire in all directions.

fire follows the oxygen, the super heated air above the fire ,will suck in air from the sides and make a fire storm above the ground

Fire does not always go up. It follows it's fuel. It usually expands up because oxygen (one of it's sources of fuel) is usually up, but can go down (say, following curtains, materials, gases, whatever).

hot air rises, cold air drops.
like when hot airballooning, in order for the balloon to rise, the hot air must be in the balloon. when descending, all you do is stop the fire and the cool air will essentially drop!

It can go down as well.Because fire can smolder and create smoke and fumes creating in turn combustion.
