treboada de masa de aire

A thunderstorm that is produced by convection within an unstable air mass through an instability mechanism. Such thunderstorms normally occur within a tropical or warm, moist air mass during the summer afternoon as the result of afternoon heating and dissipate soon after sunset. Although such thunderstorms are not generally associated with fronts, they are less likely to become severe than other types of thunderstorms. However, that does not preclude them from having brief heavy down pours.
