Do you need a super cell for a thunderstorm to form?
No. A supercell is a type of thunderstorm. Most thunderstorms are not supercells.
When was the first lightning bolt discovered?
Well before history was written, and before mankind walked the earth.
What condition required for all thunderstorms?
For starters, the thing you will need for all storms is Low Air Pressure. So you will always need this for all thunderstorms.
Thunder thighs is a slang term for very large and thick thighs that are not proportionate with the persons body.
How do thunderstorms happen grade 6 level?
Thunderstorms form when warm, moist air rises rapidly into the atmosphere, carrying water vapor with it. As the air rises, it cools and condenses into clouds, releasing heat and causing the air to continue rising. This process creates electrical charges within the cloud, resulting in lightning and thunder.
How many bushfires are started by lightning strikes?
About 3,000 fires a year are started by lightning strikes.
What is the sound called made by thunder?
The sound of thunder is often called a thunderclap, a crash, a rumble, or a loud outburst. Thunder (a sound) is made by lightning (an electrostatic discharge).

What color eyes does Grover have?
Well If you have The Demigod Files, there is a picture of him and his eyes look blue. So i would say his eyes were blue.
What is the limit of low pressure in pipes?
Steam 15 PSI or domesticwater supply most fittings are rated for 125#=When in doubt check the ASTM/ ASSE/ASME or FS /CS /NBBI=
What I do know is it takes 5 seconds for the sound waves to travel 1 mile.
So, if it's 5 seconds per mile, take 40 seconds and divide by 5 and the answer is 8 miles. That means if you count 40 seconds and hear the thunder, the flash was 8 miles away.
One more thing, every second, the sound travels .2 miles.
What happens when frequency is increased?
When frequency is increased, the number of complete wave cycles that pass a point in a given time increases. This results in a shorter wavelength and higher energy for electromagnetic waves. In terms of sound, higher frequency corresponds to higher pitch.
Would you hear thunder or see lighting first?
Even though the lightning and thunder occur at roughly the same time,
you would see a distant strike before you would hear it, because the light
travels to you about 882 thousand times as fast as the sound does.
How large are super cell thunderstorms that produce tornadoes?
A supercell may be in the range of 20 to 30 miles across. Some are larger.
What is the meaning of rated lightning impulse withstand voltage?
That is the voltage rating the product can stand up to. If the lightning withstand voltage was 100,000,000V, that means the item could get struck by lightning that is up to 100,000,000V without damaging it.
Does a winter thunderstorm mean that it is going to snow?
Not necessarily. Many winter thunderstorms are associated with cold fronts, which would mean temperatures are going to fall, but snow will not necessarily follow. Conditions following these storms may be free of any precipitation.
As far as I could tell, there is no indication in any of the ten main novels about him being bisexual.
Do lightning contribute to CF C's compound breakdown?
No, lightning does not directly contribute to the breakdown of CF-C compound. The breakdown of CF-C compound is typically a result of chemical processes, such as oxidation or hydrolysis, which do not involve lightning. Lightning can generate heat or electrical energy, but it does not have a direct influence on the breakdown of specific chemical compounds.
Why do sandstorms occur mostly in the spring?
Dust storms are most likely to occur on hot summer days under certain atmospheric conditions, so meteorologists can frequently predict the possibility of these storms. The last recorded devastating sandstorm in American history was the Dust Bowl which caused the depression. One that occurred near Tucson, Arizona, on July 16, 1971, was extensively documented by meteorologists.
Field observations, accompanied by trapping of airborne solids, showed that in Israel most of the sand and dust storms occur in the fall and winter seasons when dry periods change to periods of wet weather.
In Kuwait, the month of April is known as 'sandstorm month'. Sandstorms that come from Northern Africa and drift across Europe are called 'Sahara Sand Storms'.
