| |Meaning=A [[shower]] that is produced by local [[convection]] within an [[unstable air mass]]; the most common type of [[airmass precipitation]].
| |
| |Explanation=Such showers are not associated with a [[front]] or [[instability line]]. They are most frequent within a [[moist air]] mass that is sufficiently unstable so that daytime heating at the surface can produce well-developed [[cumulus]] clouds. The extreme form of airmass shower is the [[airmass thunderstorm]].
