Thunderstorms can reach impressive heights, typically extending from about 5,000 feet to over 60,000 feet (1,500 to 18,000 meters) in the atmosphere. The tallest thunderstorms, known as supercells, can tower even higher, with some reaching altitudes of 75,000 feet (approximately 22,800 meters) or more. The height is influenced by factors such as atmospheric instability, humidity, and temperature. These towering clouds can produce severe weather phenomena, including heavy rain, hail, and tornadoes.
