🔍 Key Concepts

• Thunderstorm structure and what happens inside strong updrafts and downdrafts • Difference between convective precipitation (from strong vertical motion) and more gentle, layered precipitation (from widespread frontal clouds) • How different types of frozen precipitation (hail, snow, sleet, freezing rain) form in the atmosphere

💭 Think About

• Think about which option typically forms inside very strong updrafts that can carry particles up and down through the storm cloud multiple times. • Which of these precipitation types is most associated with severe thunderstorms rather than winter weather systems and frontal passages? • Consider whether each choice usually forms high in cold clouds and falls directly, or if it is repeatedly lifted and grown within a powerful storm.

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice, recall its usual weather situation (winter storm, cold front, warm front, severe thunderstorm, etc.). • Ask: Does this type of precipitation require strong vertical convection inside a cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) cloud, or can it form in more stable, layered clouds? • Verify which option is specifically mentioned in study materials as a common hazard associated with thunderstorms for ships and aircraft.
