36, 090 feet
What type of clouds do thunderstorms form from?
Give this one a try later!
Convection clouds
What is Sublimation?
,Give this one a try later!
When a solid changes phase directly to a gas without going through the
liquid phase
What are some hazards with thunderstorms?
Give this one a try later!
1. Turbulence
2. Hail
3. Icing
4. Low Visibility
5. Low Ceiling
6. Lightning
7. Low level windshear
What is atmospheric convergence?
Give this one a try later!
Where air masses clash horizontally and the air is left with no place to go
other than up
Define Cumulus
Give this one a try later!
, Puffy clouds often grouped together. If they form a continuous layer then
they are referred to as stratocumulus
What are Convective thunderstorms?
Give this one a try later!
Are those were the initial source of lifting is convective heating associated
with uneven heating of the surface of the earth
What is Advection?
Give this one a try later!
Is the horizontal movement of air
What is mechanical turbulence?
Give this one a try later!
Similar in nature to lifting caused by or a graphic features
How would you calculate the cloud base?
Give this one a try later!
, Take the ground temperature and the dew point and divide it by 2.5
(Air Temperature) - (Dew Point) / 2.5 = CLoud Base
What is advection fog?
Give this one a try later!
warm, moist air moves over a cool surface
What happens too the wind as we descend?
Give this one a try later!
back
What are some tips for thunderstorm avoidance?
Give this one a try later!
1. Do not fly through thunderstorms
2. Do not fly under thunderstorms
3. If you are on the upwind side have 3 miles of distance, if you are on the
downwind side have 10 miles
4. Slow the airplane down below it's manoeuvring speed
