A volcano.
This a riddle. It has been given as "My thunder comes before my lightning. My lightning comes before my rain. My rain dries everything it touches. What am I?"One suggestion is a volcano. It's roar comes before it spews out fiery magma, and possibly lightning occurs in the subsequent clouds above the volcano. Then it rains hot ash, which certainly dries everything it touches.
The answer is a storm. Lightning is seen before thunder, which is heard before rain, which falls from the clouds during a storm.
Thunder and lightning are typically associated with cumulonimbus clouds.
Thunder and lightning are often associated with cumulonimbus clouds.
Cumulonimbus clouds are often associated with thunder and lightning. These clouds are tall, dense, and can produce severe weather including thunderstorms, lightning, heavy rain, and even hail. They are commonly seen before or during thunderstorms.
Cumulonimbus clouds.
Lightning in clouds without the sound of thunder is often caused by heat lightning. This type of lightning occurs when a storm is far away and the sound of thunder cannot travel as far as the light from the lightning.
No. Lightning is caused by electrical charges travelling from clouds to the earth, earth to clouds or cloud to cloud. Thunder is caused by lightning.
The electricity in the clouds.
Cumulonimbus clouds crashing together can create thunder. These are large, dense clouds that can produce thunderstorms and severe weather conditions like lightning and heavy rainfall. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion of air due to the intense heating and cooling caused by lightning strikes within the cloud.
No, it doesn't need to rain for thunder and lightning to occur because the thunder and lightning need cold and warm air so they collide. The clouds are like big batteries and the lightning is the short circuit. also the lightning can be between the clouds and it doesn't strike down to the ground. also if the clouds have temperature conditions and it doesn't have to rain it just creates thunder and lightning.
Thunder is caused by the rapid expansion and contraction of air surrounding a lightning bolt. While thunder is typically associated with lightning, it is possible to hear thunder without seeing the associated lightning if the lightning is occurring far away or behind clouds. This phenomenon is known as "heat lightning."
