What happens when water and ice particles rub together inside a thunderstrom cloud?

When water and ice particles collide inside a thunderstorm cloud, it results in the build-up of electric charge. This separation of positive and negative charges leads to the formation of lightning as the charges seek to balance themselves by flowing as electric currents.


What kind of cloud does a thunderstrom form in?

Thunderstorms typically form in cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, towering clouds associated with thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and sometimes hail. These clouds have strong vertical development, reaching high into the atmosphere, and are often associated with severe weather events.


Why should you never seek the shelter of a tree if you get caught out in a thunderstrom?

Trees attract lightning. They are tall. They are in the ground, which lightning seeks.


What cloud forms a gray blanket over the sky and brings a steady rain or drizzle?

The cloud that forms a gray blanket over the sky and typically brings steady rain or drizzle is known as nimbostratus. These clouds are thick and uniform, often covering the entire sky, resulting in overcast conditions. Nimbostratus clouds are associated with prolonged precipitation, making them a common sight during rainy weather.


Is cirrus the root word that tells us a cloud brings rain?

No, "cirrus" is a type of high-altitude cloud, typically wispy and feathery in appearance, but it does not specifically indicate that rain is coming. Clouds that bring rain are generally associated with nimbus or cumulus clouds. Each type of cloud has its own characteristics and weather implications.
