Vertical velocity often equals or exceeds horizontal velocities in mesoscale meteorological systems due to nonhydrostatic processes such as buoyant acceleration of a rising thermal or acceleration through a narrow mountain pass
ummmmmmmmm, ya ok.......

Wikipedia again eh.
I honestly can't wait to look at this link during a good storm.
wundermap has a nexrad overlay among other things so you can see
