Thunderstorms form when a cold front hits a warm front, and the resulting effect creates thunderstorms (Big, dark clouds that produce thunder, lightning, rain, hail, and tornados O.o)
Thunderstorms arise from unstable air masses. Instability generally occurs when the lower atmosphere is warm and moist while the upper atmosphere is cold. Under these conditions, a blob of air (called a parcel) that is nudged upward will become warmer than its surroundings and continue to rise on its own. However, something has to give it this nudge. This often comes in the form of a cold front, which develops when a cooler air mass pushes into a warmer one. Since cool air is denser than warm air, it forces the warm air up, which can trigger thunderstorms under the right conditions. Tornadoes are a product of thunderstorms, and so are dependent on much the same conditions.
No. Isolated thunderstorms does not refer to how bad the storms are,. It means that only a small portion of a given area, generally less than 20%, will be impacted by thunderstorms. Isolated thunderstorms tend to be weakerthan those that form in major clusters, however.
Yes. Convergence is one of the things forecasters look for in trying to predict thunderstorms.
Under certain conditions of heat and great pressure, yes. Diamond is one form of crystallized carbon.
When there is a collision between similarly charged clouds (specially when it rains or a storm is created) collide with each other, it result in the emission of enormous amount of energy in the form of electric pulse i.e, heat and light along with maximum potential. This charge is most often found to concentrate at a point.
Yes it is. Tornadoes form during thunderstorms, and a downdraft caused by rain is one of the things needed to produce the tornado.
Yes. Thunderstorms are more common along cold fronts, but they can occur with warm fronts as well.

Not in the blizzard itself, no. In some cases the same storm system can produce tornadoes in one area blizzard conditions in another, but these areas will remain separate from one another. For a northern hemisphere system, blizzard conditions are most likely to occur in the northwestern part of the storm while tornadoes and thunderstorms will more likely occur in the southeastern portion.
When a relatively cool, dry air mass plows into a warm, moist one it forces the warm air mass upwards along a cold front, often creating thunderstorms. Under the right conditions these thunderstorms can produce tornadoes.
Two monosaccharide molecules are needed to form one sucrose molecule.
At one time, it was believed that thunderstorms were battles waged by Zeus. Thunderstorms occurred when Jotnar fought with Thor. Later, thunderstorms were thought to have been caused by an angry god.
No. Blizzards occur when there is blowing snow. So you cannot have blizzard conditions when it is raining. However, somtimes the same storm system can produce blizzard conditions in one area and rain showers and thunderstorms in another.
Thunderstorms most often form when a mass of warm, moist air collides with a mass of cool air, dry air, or both. If the wind speed and direction changes with altitude (a condition called wind shear), the storms may start rotating, which gives them the potential to produce tornadoes
Thunderstorms start when warm, moist air is lifted and continues to rise on its own. In a cold front, a cooler air mass pushes into a warmer one. Since cool air is denser than warm air, the cooler air mass acts as a wedge, pushing the warmer air up. This can initiate the upward movement needed for thunderstorms.
because their is more moist in the air which is one of the no.1 reason of thunderstorms occurring.
