A storm with lightning and thunder

Real World Example

Picture trying to untangle a set of headphones after they’ve been jumbled in your pocket. Just like the frustration of sorting out the chaotic mess of cords, a thunderstorm involves sorting out the chaotic interactions between hot and cold air masses. In this analogy, the tangled cords represent the turbulent air mixing, and the occasional spark you feel when the cords pull apart is akin to the lightning that discharges when the storm’s energy is released in thunder.
