Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Squall-line thunderstorms are characterized by a long line of thunderstorms with a strong gust front ahead of them. These gust fronts can create straight-line winds that can cause damage and be just as dangerous as a tornado, but are not likely to produce tornado activity. Squall-line thunderstorms can also produce heavy rainfall, but the most likely accompanying hazard is straight-line winds. Supercell thunderstorms are not typically associated with squall lines.
