Instability

CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) measures the amount of instability in the atmosphere and is essential for thunderstorm development. The higher the CAPE, the higher the probability of thunderstorm development.

Wind Shear

Wind shear is the change in wind speed or direction with height, a key ingredient in thunderstorm development, especially severe storms.
