Well first off we need to look at these words very carefully. "downdrafts" DOWN means to go down and DRAFTS are like first drafts that lead to the final product. Put these words together and you get" go down first before your final product." This does not make sense what so ever. But if you reverse the words, "draftdown" you get, " before final product go down." Therefore if we translate that phrase we have, " One must acknowlege the truth before hand at his most vital stage." So when we include this in the question, it is rewritten as, " How do one must acknowledge the truth before had at his most vital stage form in thunderstorms?" The answer is that one must know himself, for downdrafts to form in thunderstorms. E.O.
An updraft is rising air inside a cloud. An updraft is formed by warm air rising into the cooler air above it.
Yes. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms, usually supercells.
No. Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus,bus clouds, which in turn form from cumulus clouds. Status clouds are not convective. Thunderstorms need convection to form.
Thunderstorms form high up in the sky (troposphere). They typically form over land, but not necessarily.
Thunderstorms form in Florida the same way that they form everywhere else in the world. See the answer for "How does a thunderstorm form?" in the links below.
Yes. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms.
microbursts
All thunderstorms contain updrafts and downdrafts, and in fact no thunderstorm could exist without updrafts. A thunderstorm forms when it a mass moist of air is lifted to a point where it is warmer than its surroundings and so rises on its own. This is the updraft and is the storm's source of power. As a storm matures, rain cools the air within it, causing it to sink and form downdrafts.
Cumulonimbus clouds form thunderstorms.
By themself no. If they form into thunderstorms or even hurricanes, yes. They can create winds known as downdrafts that make the plane lose lift and it is forced down at a higher rate than it can compensate for. The clouds can be in the form of fog and the plane can strike a mountain top or other high structure.
Yes. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms, usually supercells.
Tornadoes need thunderstorms to form.
Yes. Thunderstorms can form over both land and water.
No. Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus,bus clouds, which in turn form from cumulus clouds. Status clouds are not convective. Thunderstorms need convection to form.
Thunderstorms form in the troposphere. The tops of strong thunderstorms may go into the stratosphere.
Thunderstorms form high up in the sky (troposphere). They typically form over land, but not necessarily.
No. Tornadoes are violent whirlwinds that can form during thunderstorms.
Haboobs are very strong dust storms. Wind speeds can be up to 50mph. They appear to be a wall of dust, and can be thousands of feet high. Haboobs are caused by downdrafts near thunderstorms.
