What weather is like a thunderstorm?

Thunderstorm is a local strong convective weather in tropical and temperate regions. Thunderstorms may be accompanied by lightning, lightning, strong winds and heavy precipitation, such as rain or hail.

Thunderstorms can occur in spring and summer, the common example is summer afternoon, but they may also occur in winter snowstorms. They are called thunderstorms.

Introduction to Thunderstorm:

Thunderstorms often occur at the turn of spring and summer or in hot summer. When the stratification in the atmosphere is unstable, it is easy to produce strong convection. When the potential difference between clouds and between clouds and the ground reaches a certain level, discharge will occur. Sometimes thunder rumbles, dazzling lightning cuts through the sky, often accompanied by strong winds, showers or hail. Thunderstorms are always associated with strong cumulonimbus clouds.

In the weather forecast, people often say that strong convective weather such as thunderstorms and strong winds refers to thunderstorms accompanied by strong winds or hail.

Because the occurrence and development of thunderstorms are linked with cumulonimbus clouds, from the appearance to the disappearance of thunderstorm clouds, it is very local and sudden, with a horizontal range of only a few kilometers and a time scale of only 2-3 hours. Therefore, this small and medium-sized weather system has certain difficulty in forecasting.
