What is the term for the long lines of thunderstorms that may form in the warm air ahead of a moving cold front?
I think it is called a - Squall Line - a solid or nearly solid line or band of active thunderstorms.
What type of front is most likely to produce thunderstorms and tornadoes?
Cold fronts are most likely to produce thunderstorms and tornadoes.
Can cold fronts bring violent thunderstorms?
Yes. Thunderstorms are more common along cold fronts, but they can occur with warm fronts as well.
Which types of front is most likely to generate cumulonimbus clouds and severe thunderstorms?
warm front
Do thunderstorms happen in cold temperature or warm temperature?
Thunderstorms are most likely to form during warm weather. In simple terms, the heat is their source of energy.
What are the properties of air near the ground that are likely to produce a thunderstorm?
Thunderstorms are most likely to form when the air is warm and humid.

Thunderstorms Form When warm humid air rises?
unstable environment
Thunderstorms form when warm humid air rises in .?
unstable environment
When warm moist air rises to form thunderstorms what do you call that?
Evaporation.
Why do we get a lot of thunderstorms during warm months?
In order for thunderstorms to form the air must be unstable, which generally requires the air near the ground to be warm and moist. This warm, moist air provides the energy that powers thunderstorms. The warmer and more humid the air is, the more energy is available for thunderstorms.
Can cold fronts bring violent thunderstorms?
Yes. Thunderstorms are more common along cold fronts, but they can occur with warm fronts as well.
Why do thunderstorms usually form on warm days?
In simplest terms, thunderstorms get their energy from warm, moist air. The warmer and more humid the air, the more energy is available.
