Up to 50,000 thunderstorms happen a day puffy clouds called cumulonimbus develop before thunderstorms, when hot and cold air flow together it comes to the speed of 10 km.

Thunderstorms are tracked by radar, microwaves are sent out by weather radar which bounces off droplets into clouds, then bounces to a radar dish making patterns that meteorologists study to find thunderstorms paths.

When thunderstorms are detected meteorologists track the progress on their radar screens, information will come from aircrafts, ships and people near the storm, if the storm will make damage then they will warn people on radio and sometimes TV stations. Ambulances, police and rescue workers will get ready to help.

WALT: Identify KEY words and summarize information in a text.

Thunderstrorms can be cumulonimbus clouds or puffy clouds when warm air and cold air mix.

Thunderstorm's are very severe when hail is more then two centimeters wide it is also very severe when the wind gusts are more then 90 kilometers per hour.

Thunderstorms are tracked by radar.

Weather radar send out microwaves.

meteorologists work out when a thunderstorm is forming and they can track up to 400 kilometre's away. Weather radar are installed at many buildings and are also carried on air crafts and ships.

When thunderstorms have been detected meteorologists give information to radio stations,brood casts. Emergency services get ready for a lot of calls.

A thunderstorm can cause flooding.Hail destroys crops, cars and buildings and may injure people.Lighting may kill people.High winds damage buildings or blow down trees.

WALT: Summarise information using key words

In Room 11 we have been learning about summarizing. This will help us with research.

We read a book about thunderstorms. We would read a page with at least 50 words and look for some key words. We then turned them into sentences and then paragraphs.

Here is some information summarised by Jack and Cameron.

50,000 thunderstorms develop like puffy clouds every day and travel at great speeds.

You can find hail bigger than some thing 2 cm wide and wind up to 90 kilometer per hour.

Thunderstorms are tracked using a radar. Meteorologist look for storms forming as far away as 400 kilometers away.

Thunder storms begin as cumulonimbus clouds that are made out of warm and cold fronts. They can go ten kilometers in the air.
