Count the seconds between when the lightning flashes and the sound of the thunder. Divide the number of seconds that pass by five to get the distance in miles or by eight to get the number of kilometers. Note that this only gives you the distance to the bolt of lightning. The storm cell itself is probably at least a few miles across.

What is the difference between a thunder cell and a supercell?
A supercell is a kind of thunderstorm cell. A thunderstorm cell consists of a convective unit with its own updraft and downdraft. A supercell is the most powerful type of storm cell with a strong, rotating updraft and distinct updraft and downdraft regions.
What is single cell thunder storm?
A single cell thunderstorm, sometimes called a pulse storm, is the weakest and most common of the four main classes of thunderstorm. A single cell thunderstorm consists of an individual convective cell with its own updraft. Such a storm remains separate from nearby storms and usually lasts less than an hour. Single cell storms can occasionally produce brief periods of severe weather but rarely do. The other main classes of thunderstorms are multicell clusters, squall lines, and supercells.
Does a spectrophotometer measure total cell count or viable cell count?
The spectrophotometer measures total cell count, including both live and dead cells.
How do storm cells form?
A storm cell is convective cell of a thunderstorm with its own updraft distinct from the updrafts of neighboring cells.
What is the difference between a regular thunder cell and a supercell?
A normal thunder storm cell is relatively a short lived convective cell that usually dissipates within a half hour of forming as the downdraft chokes off the updraft. Ordinary storm cells do not rotate and usually do not produce severe weather. A supercell is the most powerful kind of thunderstorm, larger and stronger than a typical storm cell. Supercels are defined by their rotation and an associated area of low pressure called a mesocyclone. Supercells often produce severe weather. They can produce powerful wind gusts, large hail, and strong tornadoes. Nearly all strong tornadoes form from supercells. Additionally, a supercell has separate updraft and downdraft regions that do not interfere with each other, allowing these storms to persist for hours.
Are super cell thunder storms the same as isolated thunder storms?
No, because a super cell storm is a quick and violent (and rare) storm while an isolated thunder storms are common, longer storms. Can you guys belive a 12 year old wrote this?!? It's true! ='p
How would you calculate the speed at which a thunderstrom cell is moving?
Count the time in seconds between a lightning flash and the thunder clap. Five seconds delay equals 1 mile in distance.

What makes tornadoes and waterspouts wild?
the atmosphere makes tornadoes and waterspouts wild,because in tornadoes anything can change at any time due to measures in a super cell thunder storm either temps,dew points, winds or storm path.
Is it dangerous to be on the phone during a storm?
YES it is because if u use it during a thunder storm it can hit the metal arial of the cell phone and u can get shocked by the lightining!!
Is a snow storm a storm cell?
No, a storm cell is what thunderstorms are sometimes referred to. A snow storm is a type of midlatitude cyclone, meaning it is a low pressure system that spans hundreds of miles in diameter.
