A thundercloud is a large, thick, dark cloud.
A thundercloud is a thick, dark and large cloud , which is usually located far away from the rest of the clouds. A cloud , meanwhile, is an accumulation of small ice crystals and/or water droplets that is generated by the condensation of vapor and is suspended in the atmosphere .
Reduced luminosity
When there are clouds in the sky , the luminosity is reduced, since the sun's rays are blocked and do not reach the Earth's surface easily. Generally the presence of thunderclouds is associated with the imminence of precipitation . For example: “Look at those storm clouds… I think it will rain soon,” “There are a lot of storm clouds, I hope our picnic won't be ruined,” “The sky is almost clear, there is only one storm cloud over the sea but I don't think the weather will get worse.” ” .
Let's look at the three examples carefully. In the first, the sender senses that it will rain based on the clouds that can be observed in the sky. This is the most common deduction we make when we see the sky covered, especially if the clouds are gray and, as we said above, there is little luminosity . We continue with a sentence in which dark clouds could be the reason for canceling a day in the countryside, or spoil it by preventing various outdoor activities.
Finally, thunderclouds do not always appear in groups, but can occur in isolation, in a well-defined area of the sky . Although its presence is enough for the day not to be radiant, one alone does not usually lead to rain or a considerable drop in temperature , although it can block the passage of sunlight at times, something negative for a day at the beach. .
Issues
A storm cloud can also be a problem , figuratively speaking. This is a symbolic use of the concept that is used to refer to that which implies or anticipates a difficult situation . Dark clouds threaten stability, well-being or the fulfillment of objectives. In some ways, we can compare it to a bad omen , the indication that something very bad will happen in the near future.
Suppose an analyst points out: “There are dark clouds in the future of the national economy.” This expert alludes to the complications that will occur in the economic progress of a country due to imminent maturities of a debt that is impossible to pay, a devaluation that affects the local currency and the drought that threatens the development of the agricultural industry.
Although dark clouds are temporary, they reduce luminosity.
Name of a video game
“Nubarron: The Adventure of an Unlucky Gnome” , finally, is the name of a video game developed by the Argentine studio Nastycloud and published by Hidden People Club .
It is a platform title praised for its design and its challenging but ingenious puzzles . The graphic style has an unmistakable personality, thanks to the fact that both its settings and its characters are drawn by hand. While we can never escape pixels in this area, the magic that traditional art brings to a video game is priceless and adds greater depth to the experience.
The main character, who is a gnome, is followed by a cloud at all times. Our adventure's main objective is to get the poor dwarf free of her forever, in addition to recovering his lucky hat . Throughout the game, we will have to go through a fairy tale world that, far from being friendly and easy to understand, will impose different obstacles on us and introduce us to different very peculiar characters.
