Why can t you hear the sound of thunder when it s snowing?

It doesn't matter if you add points or not, but the key is to give the right answer. The reason why there is no thunder on a snowy day is that the first one is a reason, and the second and third also have some truth, so let me talk about the reason. To appear thunder, there must be the formation of a large cloud first, due to the strong internal convection and the continuous collision of cloud particles, often with a large charge, when the charge accumulates to a certain extent, a large amount of discharge, this is lightning, generally between the cloud and the ground, sometimes also between the cloud block, when the cloud body with a large number of negative charge, it will make the ground object with a large number of positive induced charge.

In the air of the cloud and the ground, there are scattered positive charge cells that are repelled from some ground objects due to the positive charge on the ground, the negative charge on the cloud explores the way downward, and extends to the surrounding small charge area along the road, when it is close to the strong positive charge gathering place on the ground, a large number of positive charges will be sucked up and begin to discharge, then there will be a dazzling flash of dendrizzle on the whole flash path, and then the electric heat will increase violently after the flash, and the rumbling thunder caused by the sudden expansion of the air. But the convection of cold air in winter is not actually very strong, so even if there is thunder, it will be very, very small thunder, so small that it can only be heard when you stand next to thunder, and besides, the nature of matter will be different from normal when the temperature is low, so this is why thunder cannot be felt in winter.

Because clouds contain a lot of water, and water contains charged ions. Clouds collide with clouds, and the ions collide with each other. The collision of ions produces a large amount of energy, producing thunder and lightning.

When it snows, clouds contain water crystals, so there are no ions. Naturally, there was no lightning or thunder.

Nonsense, how can it thunder when it's snowing, you're not sleeping, are you?

The reasons why there is sometimes thunder and sometimes no thunder on rainy days are as follows:

Thunder sometimes doesn't sound when it rains because: Thunderstorm is a large weather phenomenon caused by natural factors such as electrostatic induction, wind shear, and tropical cyclones. And when it rains, there are a lot of clouds in the sky, and when lightning passes through the clouds, the conductors connect the clouds and the earth, which leads to the passage of electric current.

Since the flow of electric current will produce a magnetic field, the surrounding metal will be attracted by the magnetic field, resulting in sparks and flashes.

If there is only thunder and there is little thunder when it rains in some areas, this may be due to the phenomenon of "wet tail". Wet tail refers to the phenomenon of lightning that was not heard when it happened, but then rained down. This is due to the fact that when lightning occurs, part of the cloud layer is broken down and an electric current leaks, causing some water vapor to condense in the air to form rainfall.

Therefore, thunder occurs only when it rains in some areas, and the thunder is low, which may be due to the wet tail phenomenon.

If you don't hear thunder when it strikes, it may be because you're on the edge of a thunderstorm. A thunderstorm is a very violent weather phenomenon that is usually accompanied by natural phenomena such as strong winds, torrential rain, blizzards, etc. When thunderstorms occur, natural factors such as electrostatic induction, wind shear, tropical cyclones, etc., occur simultaneously.

If you're on the edge of a thunderstorm, you may only hear part of the thunder, or you won't hear it at all.

I hope the above information is enough to solve your doubts, if you have any other questions, please let me know.

Thunder and lightning will occur on rainy days because when the air is extremely unstable, it is easy to have a strong upward convective movement, and the formation of towering cumulonimbus clouds, the clouds are filled with water vapor running up and down, static electricity will be generated, the upper and lower ends of the cloud will produce electric charges, and the air will expand in an instant** Thunder, and the electric spark emitted is lightning.

Why thunder and lightning when it rains.

When it rains, some of the clouds in the sky are positive and some are negative. When two clouds collide, lightning strikes, and at the same time emits a lot of heat, heating and expanding the surrounding air. The air that is heated and expanded in an instant will push the surrounding air, causing a strong **-type vibration, which is thunder.

Thunder and lightning are the phenomenon of electrical discharge in thunderstorm clouds. The formation of thunderstorm clouds generally requires two conditions, sufficient water vapor and violent convective movements.

Lightning is a phenomenon of intense electrical discharge between clouds, between clouds and the ground, or between parts of the cloud. Usually storm clouds (cumulonimbus clouds) produce electric charges, with yin electricity at the bottom and yang electricity at the top, and also a positive charge on the ground, which follows the clouds like a shadow. Positive and negative charges attract each other, and the positive charges run towards trees, hills, the tops of tall buildings, and even the human body, reaching down and getting closer to the ground.

Eventually, the negative charge of the cluster base finally overcame the barrier of air and connected, and a huge electric current surged along the conductive airway from the ground to the clouds, and lightning was generated.

Thunder and lightning is a discharge phenomenon in thunderstorm clouds, and there are certain conditions for the formation of thunderstorm clouds to burn, that is, there must be sufficient water vapor in the air, there must be a power to make the moist air rise, and the air must be able to produce violent convective movement.

In spring and summer, due to the influence of the warm and humid airflow from the south, the air is humid, and the solar radiation is strong, and the air near the ground is constantly heated and rises, and the cold air in the upper layer sinks, which is easy to form strong convection, so there are many thunderstorms and even hail.

In winter, due to the control of the continental cold air mass, the air is cold and dry, and the solar radiation is weak, so the air is not easy to form violent convection, so thundershowers rarely occur.

Dear, in the absence of snow, the sounds you hear at night may be caused by other factors. Here are some possible reasons:1

Cooling: When the temperature drops, it will cause the temperature of the ground and the surface of the object to drop, causing the moisture in the air to condense into Xiaoice crystals, Xiaoice which will fall to the ground due to gravity, making a rattling sound, somewhat similar to the sound of snow. 2.

Wind: At night, due to the drop in ground temperature, a strong reflective layer of the ground is formed, making the wind more prone to vortices and turbulence at night, and these wind sounds are somewhat similar to the sound of snow. 3.

Rain, Falling Leaves: If it rains at night or leaves fall in autumn, these sounds will also be somewhat similar to the sounds of snow. 4.

Vehicle sounds: At night, the sound of vehicles driving will be clearer due to reduced traffic flow, and the engine sound of some vehicles will also be somewhat similar to the sound of snow in some cases. In conclusion, it is unlikely that the sound of snow is heard in the absence of snow and may be caused by other factors such as demolition.

When snowflakes fall from the clouds, do people see snow or rain on the ground? If the temperature near the ground level is relatively high, when the snowflakes fall, they will re-melt in the low altitude near the ground level and become raindrops, and what we see is the falling rain. Conversely, if the temperature near the ground level is relatively low and the snowflakes cannot melt, it will snow.

Thunder on a snowy day, which I have never seen before, is a bad omen. "Most of this is due to ignorance of weather phenomena and unscientific nonsense influenced by the feudal superstitions of the old society.
