A rainband is

  • A.a layer of cloud with no precipitation
  • B.an elongated region of enhanced precipitation
  • C.a single isolated convective cell
  • D.the bright band seen on radar

Answer: B

Rainbands are prominent in frontal systems and in tropical cyclones alike. Their organisation reflects the dynamics of the parent system rather than the microphysics within them. The same microphysics operates in bands of very different origin.
