A thunderstorm is a rain storm that produces thunder and lightning usually associated with a cumulonimbus cloud. They can also produce strong, sometimes damaging and hail.

A tornado is a violently rotating and often destructive column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground, often made visible by a condensation funnel.

What makes extreme weather stops?

Eventually, extreme weather systems ultimately run out of energy. hurricanes eventually dissipate, tornados are short-lived, and thunderstorms run out of power.


What are thunderstorms and what conditions are needed for one to form?

Thunderstorms are severe weather events characterized by heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and strong winds. They form when warm, moist air rises rapidly in an unstable atmosphere, creating updrafts and cumulonimbus clouds. Additional factors like atmospheric instability, moisture, and a trigger (such as a front or a disturbance) are needed for thunderstorms to develop.


Was there ever a severe thunderstorm in Chicago?

Yes, Most thunderstorms in chicago are severe unless they are scattered or isolated. wich means theyre short t-storms that are off and on due to a storm around the area or isolated wich is far from buildings and people


Why you have thunderstorms?

Thunderstorms are caused by the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air that cools and condenses, leading to the formation of cumulonimbus clouds. As the air continues to rise, it can create an unstable atmosphere that results in the development of lightning, thunder, heavy rain, and sometimes hail. Thunderstorms are common in areas where warm, moist air interacts with cooler air masses or where there is significant atmospheric instability.


Which weather phenomena is associated with tornadoes and hurricanes?
