Why is it sultry before a thunderstorm?

Yes, mostly.

In midsummer, thunderstorms often occur in most parts of our country. Because thunderstorms have two conditions: one is high ground temperature, and the other is high atmospheric humidity. When the ground is hot, the air near the ground can rise very high and become gently floating into the sky; But if the weather is hot and the air is dry, thunderstorms will not happen. Only when the humidity is high and the humid air rises to the sky will thunderstorm clouds form. There are thunderclouds in the sky, and there may be thunderstorms.

When the atmosphere is hot and there is a lot of water vapor, the water on the ground is not easy to evaporate and the sweat on people is not easy to dry, so we will feel bored. Everyone has this experience. When we take a bath in the bathroom, we feel sultry, because the temperature in the bathroom is high and there is a lot of steam. So sultry is a sign of high temperature and high water vapor in the atmosphere, and it is also a sign of thunderstorm.

But sometimes, although the weather is sultry, there is no thunderstorm here. This is because the scope of thunderstorms in summer is relatively small, and thunderstorms fall elsewhere instead of coming to us. I hope it helps you!
