An overshooting top can appear above the (*) anvil-like structure of these phenomena, and when they contain a mesocyclone they are classified as supercells.
The Lemon technique is used to detect and measure the severity of these events. Capping inversions selectively cause very strong versions of these events to form, and the outflow boundary separates these events from the surrounding air. An overshooting top can appear above the (*) anvil-like structure of these phenomena, and when they contain a mesocyclone they are classified as supercells. Collections of these phenomena occur in a squall line, and in the United States, these events occur particularly frequently in the South and on summer afternoons. For 10 points, name these weather phenomena known for producing violent lightning.
