11.   However, sunshine will yield to puffy clouds by late morning across the interior, as rising currents of warm air mix with cold air aloft.

12.   In the absence of rising currents, dead clouds sometimes float along when low-level winds are light.

13.   In spring, the rising currents of air that generate clouds are inhibited over the still chilly waters.

14.   On the high ground of the Appalachians, rising currents of moist air produced enough chill to tip the scales for accumulating snows.

15.   Rising currents of heated air will induce spotty thunderstorms across the peninsula, especially during the afternoon.

16.   Rising currents of heated air will produce isolated afternoon thunderstorms, especially in the Appalachians and several miles inland from the Atlantic coast.

17.   Some storms may also produce hail, as rising currents of increasingly warm, humid air are buoyed by a pocket of chill aloft.

18.   That is, conditions aloft are favorable for rising currents of air.

19.   The cooling stabilizes the atmosphere, suppressing the rising currents of warm air needed to promote severe storms.

20.   The storms will be most numerous during the afternoon when the uneven heating of the varied terrain promotes vigorous rising currents of moistened air.
