When warm humid air near the ground moves vertically into cooler air above, the rising air, or updraft, can build a thunderstorm quickly.]]> 2017-11-15 14:25:22 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207201505 Small and Big Tornadoes caro271999 https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207201646 The most common tornadoes are small and last only a few minutes. Cause small damages. 
Big tornadoes are less common but have stronger winds and last longer. They can knock over large trees, lift cars off the ground, and tear roofs off houses ]]> 2017-11-15 14:25:35 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207201646 Hail causes nearly $1 billion in damage to property and crops in the USA every year. miranda_gtz_v https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207202120 It can wipe out entire fields of a valuable crop in a few minutes.]]> 2017-11-15 14:26:18 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207202120 Process of thunderstorm formation analighiabernal https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207202452 1. Rising humid air forms a cumulus cloud. The cloud continues building up into the tall cumulonimbus cloud of thunderstorm. 
2. Ice particles form in the low temperatures near the top of the cloud. This strong downdraft brings heavy rain or hail-the most severe stage of a thunderstorm.
3. The downdraft can spread out and block more warm air from the moving upward into the cloud. The storm slows down and ends.]]> 2017-11-15 14:26:48 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207202452 Path of Tornadoes caro271999 https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203076 A tornadoe moes along with its thunderstorm. It travels at the same pace and weaves a path that is impossible to predict. A tornado warning is issued when a tornado has been detected (when the weather conditions might produce tornadoes). ]]> 2017-11-15 14:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203076 Lightning can kill or seriously injure any person it hits miranda_gtz_v https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203084 It can damage power lines and other equipments. ]]> 2017-11-15 14:27:45 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203084 Tornadoes form in severe thunderstorm miranda_gtz_v https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203802 a tornado is a violently rotating column of air stretching from a cloud to the ground.]]> 2017-11-15 14:28:54 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207203802 You cannot se air moving miranda_gtz_v https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207204447 a tornado may become visible when water droplets appear below the cloud in the center of the rotating column. ]]> 2017-11-15 14:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207204447 Thunderstorm caro271999 https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207205222 They can form at a cold front or within an air mass. At a cold front, air can be forced upward quickly. Within an air mass, uneven heating can produce convection and thunderstorms]]> 2017-11-15 14:31:09 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207205222 Formation of Thunderstom analighiabernal https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207206184 2017-11-15 14:32:43 UTC https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207206184 How does lighting forms analighiabernal https://padlet.com/analighiabernal/mdpq8b13k5o9/wish/207211429 A charge spark from one part of a cloud to another.The spark of electricity, called lighting, causes a bright flash of light.
