The basic ingredients used to make a thunderstorm are moisture, unstable air and lift. You need moisture to form clouds and rain. You need unstable air that is relatively warm and can rise rapidly. Finally, you need lift. This can form from fronts, sea breezes or mountains.
Thunderstorms are created by updrafts of warm, humid air. When that rising air cools off at the higher altitudes and the humidity condenses into rainfall or hail, it creates downdrafts and outflows of cool, dry air that race ahead of the storm and the rainfall.
