Thunderstorms | Can’t Sleep? Learn the Science of Storms

Thunderstorms are atmospheric machines powered by warm air, moisture, and some impressively violent physics. This episode explores how thunderstorms form, what creates lightning and thunder, how towering storm clouds develop, and why some storms produce hail, strong winds, or tornadoes. Along the way, you’ll learn about the different types of thunderstorms, the life cycle of a storm, and the science behind weather that has never been particularly interested in keeping things quiet.

It’s steady and consistent, with no whispering and no sudden changes, just enough to give your mind something to follow as you wind down. Happy sleeping!
