Warm humid air that rises into the clouds is known as an updraft. This process occurs when the sun heats the Earth's surface, causing the air above it to warm and become less dense, leading it to rise. As the air ascends, it cools, and the moisture it carries may condense to form clouds and potentially precipitation. This phenomenon is a key component of weather systems and can contribute to storm development.
Thunderstorms occur when there is warm air that rises. This air must also be damp or moisturized. Therefore, areas that are warm and humid are usually where thunderstorms occur. (These places are most commonly found around the equator)
Warm air
it gets warmer as it rises
Warm air rises at the equator and cold air sinks at the poles. Warm air expands and cool air contracts and compresses.
When air warms up, its molecules gain energy and move faster, causing the air to expand and become less dense. This can lead to changes in air pressure, which in turn affects weather patterns and can create wind as the warm air rises and cooler air moves in to replace it.

The warm humid air rising into a cloud is called updraft. As the warm air rises, it cools and condenses into water droplets, eventually forming clouds and potentially leading to precipitation like rain. Updrafts are important in the process of cloud formation and sustaining storm systems.
warm humid air rises and meets cold air leaving diffuser thus causing it to sweat.
Warm, humid air which rises in an unstable environment. Often, this happens as a cold front sweeps into a warm, humid region, driving up the warm, moist air into a region where it quickly condenses due to temperature and pressure changes.
Warm air
Humid air rises in the atmosphere because it is less dense than dry air.
Warm air rises,and then sinks when the air is cold.
The meeting of warm, humid air and cool, dry air is not the direct cause of tornadoes. The boundary where these air masses meet is called a cold front, as the cooler air mass is advancing. Cool, dry air is denser than warm, moist air. As a result, the cooler air mass acts as a wedge, forcing the warm, moist air upward. As the warm air rises it cools and the moisture in it condense. If it is unstable enough, this will lead to the formation of thunderstorms. If a few other conditions are right, these storms may go on to produce tornadoes.

It's the other way round - when air becomes warm, it rises.
