SCOPE NOTE

In a mature thunderstorm, falling rain and hail drag the surrounding air down, causing a strong down-draught which accelerates as the air cools due to evaporation of rain drops. It spreads out upon reaching the ground producing a cool gusty wind which can be strong enough to cause significant damage.
