Why a cold-front thunderstorm is usually more severe than a warm-front thunderstorm?
The slope of a cold front is steeper than a warm front.The wind shift along a cold front is also more.Moreover a cold front moves faster than a warm front and replaces the warm air mass in front forcing it up at a faster rate leading to convection.
Above tropopause, the temperature starts rising with height leading to stable conditions in the atmosphere.Convection will not take place in such a stable condition.Clouds will not remain as clouds as the water vapor gets evaporated due to high temperature. More over about 99% of the moisture is confined to troposphere only. Only air-mass thunderstorms have a strong preference for the afternoon hours.
