What are characteristics of a moist, unstable air mass?
A. Turbulence and showery precipitation.
B.Poor visibility and smooth air.
C.Haze and smoke.
Answer: A. Turbulence and showery precipitation.
The unstable air mass which is featured by the volatility and swirling precipitation is marked by a wet and moist environment. Temperature lapse and instability precipita the rise of clouds and rainfall from vertical motion in a cumuliform direction.
If the air mass is unstable and pretty much if it contains a lot of water vapor and it is a large amount in the atmospheric air, it is most likely to precipitate and showery state of things. This mixing process promotes the buoyancy of air parcels, causing them to rise rapidly and lead to the formation of cumuliform clouds (e.g. cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds). The result is the higher intensity of the thunderstorms or showers.
Disruption results from the vertical air speeds and the passenger traveling becomes a bumpy experience or with turbulence. The humid air found in such air may mass may bring heavy, showery, and sometimes short lived and localized precipitations, which occur in the form of heavy downpours.
