User Avatar

Asked by Star88

Thunder is the sound produced by the rapid expansion of air surrounding a lightning strike. When lightning heats the air to temperatures five times hotter than the sun's surface, the air rapidly expands, creating a shock wave that we perceive as thunder. The intensity and duration of the thunder depend on the distance of the lightning and the atmospheric conditions.

Why does it hail?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hail forms when raindrops freeze while falling. This can happen for many reasons. If the drops move through an area of very dry air, rapid evaporation can cause the drops to freeze.
