Which cloud is more associated with thunder and lightning rain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cumulonimbus cloud

Direct answer: B, the cumulonimbus cloud. Cumulonimbus clouds develop strongly upward and can extend through a large part of the troposphere. Their powerful vertical growth is associated with unstable air, vigorous updrafts, heavy showers, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail or strong winds. A, cirrus, is a high, thin, fibrous cloud made mainly of ice crystals and is not the typical thunderstorm cloud. C, fog, is a cloud at or near the ground, not a tall thunderstorm cloud. D, mist, is also near-surface suspended moisture and does not normally produce thunder and lightning. The word ‘nimbus’ is a useful clue because it relates to rain, while cumulonimbus specifically indicates a towering rain cloud. Remember: thunderstorm = tall cumulonimbus.
