There are two basic kinds of thunderstorms, air mass and severe. Air mass thunderstorms are usually created by convective uplift of warm, moist, and unstable air. Severe thunderstorms may even spawn tornadoes and tend to form along strong cold fronts where the air on either side is very different, the atmosphere is very unstable, and wind shear aloft is prevalent.
