🔍 Key Concepts

• Strong convection currents in cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds • How frozen precipitation is formed and grows in size • Difference between in-cloud formation vs. precipitation that freezes on the way down

💭 Think About

• Which of these options is most closely associated with thunderstorms rather than general winter weather? • Think about which form of frozen precipitation needs to be repeatedly carried up and down through layers above and below freezing. • Which processes happen mostly inside the cloud, and which happen mainly as droplets fall through a cold layer near the surface?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is specifically linked to thunderstorms and strong updrafts. • Eliminate any options that usually form in stable or stratiform clouds without strong vertical motion. • Confirm whether the ice particles must be recirculated through the freezing level multiple times to grow.
