Three of the following favour deep convective cloud. Which is the odd one out?

  • A.a strong temperature inversion above the surface
  • B.a steep environmental lapse rate
  • C.abundant low level moisture
  • D.a mechanism to lift parcels to free convection

Answer: A

An inversion caps the ascent and prevents parcels from reaching their level of free convection. The other three are the classic ingredients meteorologists look for when deep convection is expected. Any one of them missing is usually enough to keep the day quiet.
