Many ancient cultures viewed thunderstorms as ominous signs, often associating them with angry gods or spirits warning of impending disaster. These events were seen as indicators of nature's potential destructive power and were often interpreted as messages from the supernatural world.
A thunderstorm warning means that severe thunderstorms are expected to occur in the warned area. This can include threats of strong winds, hail, heavy rain, and lightning, which can pose dangers to life and property. It is important to take immediate precautions and seek shelter when a thunderstorm warning is issued.
A severe weather warning is wen extreme weather is reported. Examples: * Snow storm * Ligntning storm A severe weather warning is when meteorologists predict extreme weather. Examples: * Blizzard * Flash flood
Here is an example of a severe thunderstorm warning from June 27, 2010: "A severe thunderstorm warning remains in effect until 4:30 EDT for Erie County in Northwest Pennsylvania At 4:05 PM EDT National Weather Service Doppler Radar continued to indicate a severe thunderstorm capable of producing quarter size hail and damaging winds in excess of 60 mph. This storm was located near Erie moving northeast at 45 mph. Locations near the path of the severe thunderstorm include Erie and Northeast." See the link for the original text.
A severe weather watch informs you when the conditions are right for severe weather to happen, while a warning means it is happening or is imminent, and is warning you to take immediate action.

severe thunderstorm warning or significant weather alert
"Ominous" means foreboding or warning.
A tornado/thunderstorm watch means that weather conditions are good for tornado/thunderstorm. A tornado/thunderstorm warning, however, means that conditions are extreme and a thunderstorm or tornado is likely. Conditions for either storm are very good at this stage.

yes, they are SYNONYMS. The dust storm was ominous. The dust storm was threatening. Same thing. There is a difference between them which makes them less than perfect synonyms. "Ominous" means portentous; it comes from the word "omen" which is a sign or token of something to come. Therefore it is actually more like a warning than a threat.
Stop trimming the tree; there's been a thunderstorm warning issued. The thunderstorm may bring strong winds and a lot of rain.
Most severe thunderstorms do not produce tornadoes. If a tornado is detected or it is believed a storm might produce one a tornado warning is issued, which is more serious than a severe thunderstorm warning. A thunderstorm that produces a tornado is automatically classified as severe even if other severe weather (damaging non-tornadic wind or large hail) does not occur.
The prophet who warned Queequeg and Ishmael about sailing on the Pequod was Elijah. He appears in Herman Melville's novel "Moby-Dick" and his warning sets an ominous tone for the characters' journey.
