The stage of thunderstorm formation which is characterized by updrafts accompanied by downdrafts induced by falling precipitation is called "mature stage."

<h3>What is thunderstorm?</h3>

Thunderstorms are ferocious, brief meteorological disturbances that are nearly always accompanied by lightning, thunder, thick clouds, significant amounts of rain or hail, with strong gusts of wind.

Some characteristics of thunderstorm are-

  • Layers of warmer, moist air travel in a strong updraft to cooler areas of the atmosphere, whereupon thunderstorms form.
  • At that location, the updraft's moisture condenses to create imposing cumulus clouds and, subsequently, precipitation.
  • Cooled air columns then descend to the ground and are met by powerful downpours and horizontal winds.
  • In parallel, electrical charges build up on cloud molecules (water droplets with ice).
  • When the electric charge that has collected is sufficiently high, lightning discharges happen.
  • When lightning strikes, it instantly and intensely warms the surrounding air, creating shock waves that sound like thunderclaps and rolls.
  • Occasionally, air vortices that are spinning and powerful enough just to create tornadoes are present with intense thunderstorms.

Describe the positive and negative aspects of island living.
viva [34]

Answer:

Pros: First of all it is community that can make or break it for me, be it University days, my early career in Toronto or living in the middle of the ocean. I have met the most incredible people, beautiful people born on the islands and many from varied nations that make up our rich ex-pat community. The ex-pats are particularly special to me as we are all in the same boat, so to speak, in that we are looking for community which makes us available on Christmas or Easter, a brunch or a barbecue as we don’t have family on the Island. We become that for each other: celebrators, listening ears and extra hands. We are Island Family.

Cons: It is a very transient place for ex-pats so you are always saying a heart wrenching farewell to one or more of these Island family members. And of course, we all miss our families/friends back home. I know I do.
