For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Lapse rate is the rate of change of an atmospheric variable, usually temperature, with height. A steep lapse rate implies a rapid decrease in temperature with height (a sign of instability) and a steepening lapse rate implies that destabilization is occurring. Destabilization leads to storminess... often thunderstorm activity...
