The term for a severe weather condition characterized by high winds and thunderstorms is a "storm" or more specifically, a "thunderstorm." Thunderstorms can produce heavy rainfall, lightning, and sometimes hail or tornadoes, depending on their severity. These weather phenomena develop when warm, moist air rises quickly, creating unstable atmospheric conditions. When the air cools, it condenses into clouds, leading to precipitation and storm activity. Thunderstorms can vary in intensity, from mild rain showers to severe storms capable of causing significant damage due to strong winds and associated hazards like flash flooding.
