2:07: "...to monitor clouds as they turn into thunderstorms." Thanks! That helped a lot. 😉👍

[@charlessmith263]

When the moisture lapse rate goes up too fast than the clouds condensing can cool only slowly - the result is that the towering clouds go up too fast and cool too fast at the top levels, causing enough charge separation for lightning, causing the thunderstorm to start from the cumulus stage to the mature stage.
