Afternoon sea breezes develop as a result of a pressure gradient force created by heating from the sun. The sun heats the land faster than the sea, creating warm, rising thermals in the morning over the Florida peninsula. This rising air results in lower surface pressure over land relative to the sea, so air flows inward from the ocean from high pressure to low pressure.
This air moves inward from both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. The seabreezes converge over the center of Florida, usually around noon-2 PM. When the air converges, it is forced upward. If there is enough moisture and instability, this rising air will "break" the capping inversion at the top of the boundary layer and continue rising all the way up to the tropopause, forming a thunderstorm.
The storms will then move either east or west depending on the prevailing wind direction. They usually only have a lifetime of ~30 minutes because there are no upper level winds to support their updrafts. The outflow boundaries created by the seabreeze storms' cold downbursts will often converge and create additional lift and new thunderstorms.
Once the sun sets, the storms usually disappear, although they can occasionally continue to be fueled by warm sea temperatures if they move offshore, especially over the warm Gulf Stream.
The ground throughout the day is being heated by the sun and massive evaporation takes place. When enough water vapor accumulates in the upper atmosphere, the vapor molecules collide and join getting bigger and eventually when heavy enough they fall in the form of rain drops.
A thunderstorm would never result from an earthquake. Earthquakes can cause fires by breaking gas lines and electrical wires, but there is no mechanism by which an earthquake could cause a thunderstorm.

Thunderstorms are weather events.
Because the angle of a strike of Lightning can bring massive wind storms that cause a tornado.
The primary danger in a thunderstorm is the risk of being struck by lightning. Lightning can cause severe injuries or even death. It is important to seek shelter indoors or in a vehicle to stay safe during a thunderstorm.
Yes. In fact a thunderstorm is the only thing that can cause a tornado.
A thunderstorm would never result from an earthquake. Earthquakes can cause fires by breaking gas lines and electrical wires, but there is no mechanism by which an earthquake could cause a thunderstorm.
No, it is the other way around: thunderstorms cause tornadoes.
Yes. Thunderstorms are the primary cause of flash floods.
Thunderstorms can cause floods, but most do not.

Heavy precipitation is an example of one of the effects of a thunderstorm. They can also cause trees to fall, and damage power lines.
moisture on the ignition coils.spray them with silicon spray.
Lightning is created by a thunderstorm, not the other way around. Not all "thunderstorms" (cumulonimbus cloud formations) have lightning, but that is how they were named.
No. It is the spinning air that forms a tornado.
yes :> cause thunderstorm is a compound word, isn't it?
