![]() One lifting mechanism that I already mentioned was when warm and cold air masses collide.(Reference Picture) But some other examples of lifting mechanisms are differential heating or convection, dry lines, outflow boundaries, and terrain. Now lifting mechanisms are the things that push the warm air up. And as pockets of warmer air rise and condense they form clouds. While instability is air that keeps rising up or sinking after it is “nudged.” Also unstable are masses of air are found when warm and cold air masses collide into each other. Moisture forms the rain and clouds in the thunderstorms and moisture is often provided by the Atlantic Ocean. According to Ingredients for thunderstorm those three ingredients are moisture, instability, and a lifting mechanism. But it takes some specific “Ingredients” to get the formation started. Thunderstorms happen almost everyday all around the earth. (Picture of instability, moisture, and lifting mechanisms) When I leave today you will now how thunderstorms form, specific things in them, and one other interesting thing. But there are a lot more complex and interesting things that you might not know about them. ![]() As hail pounds the ground, a tornado roars in the distance. Flash! Boom! The lighting scars the sky and thunder shatters the air. Intro- Boom! Clap! The sky has gone pitch black and the wind is howling. ![]()
