1) The cumulus (or developing) stage.
2) Rain begins to fall during the mature stage.
3) The dissipating stage begins when downdrafts dominate and the updrafts weaken (so the storm is cut off from its source of warm, moist air).
4) In the mature stage the storm is most intense: strong updrafts and downdrafts coexist, producing heavy rain, lightning and thunder, gusty winds and possibly hail.
