Stationary fronts are notorious for producing flooding because the front, which serves as the lifting mechanism for the storms,

doesn't move with time. Therefore, storms repeatedly form and follow one another over the same location. What do meteorologists call this type of thunderstorm behavior?

Answer: Super cell thunderstorm

Explanation: When cold and warm air masses collides with each other, balancing the total air mass, then this condition is called the stationary front. This front often creates heavy flooding occurring in a particular region with heavy thunderstorm, which is known as the super cell thunderstorm.

Super cell thunderstorm are enormous, destructive storms which are formed due to the instability in the air masses, moisture content in the air masses, wind speed as well as lifting mechanism of the air mass. It is the strongest of all the thunderstorm types.

<h3>Answer: Choice (4) in the bottom right corner</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

The sun warms up the land and the air adjacent to the land. The earth/rocks aren't a very good heatsink compared to the water, so effectively the heat energy bounces off the land and into the air. The land-adjacent air is heated much quicker compared to the water-adjacent air. The warm air over the land rises because the air particles are more energetic to bounce around faster. The rising warm air spreads out not only vertically but also horizontally as the diagram shows.

As the warm air moves over the colder lake, the warm air cools down and sinks. The breeze from the lake moves toward the land, due to the pressure difference (wind moves from high pressure to low pressure), and this starts the process all over again.

All of this describes diagram (4) which is the final answer. This diagram is a very simplified view and actual weather patterns are much more complicated.

-------------------

Side notes:

  • Choice (1) can be ruled out because the surface wind should flow from the water toward the land. Also, the lake acts like a heat sink, so not much heat energy will cause warm air to rise compared to air on the land (which isn't that great a heat sink).
  • Choice (2) can be ruled out because warm air should rise, and not sink.
  • Choice (3) can be ruled out because cool air doesn't rise.
