afternoon storm
Post-lunch weather event
A storm that occurs during the afternoon hours, typically between noon and evening.
In many climates, especially tropical and subtropical regions, afternoon storms follow a predictable pattern—morning heat builds moisture and instability that releases as thunderstorms later in the day.
The afternoon storms in Florida are so regular you can set your watch by them.
