Cloudburst - is it part of Global Warming & Climate Change A cloudburst is a large amount of precipitation in a short period, sometimes accompanied by hail and thunder, that can cause flooding. Cloudbursts may rapidly drop massive volumes of water, for example, 25 mm of precipitation equals 25,000 metric tonnes per square kilometer (1 inch corresponds to 72,300 short tonnes over one square mile). Cloudbursts, on the other hand, are uncommon because they occur only when there is an orographic lift or when a warm air parcel combines with colder air, resulting in quick condensation. A huge volume of runoff from higher elevations is sometimes confused with a cloudburst. The name "cloudburst" originates from the idea that clouds, like water balloons, may burst, causing quick precipitation.
