Cumulonimbus clouds are associated with heavy precipitation and thunderstorms. These clouds tend to form below 20,000 feet and produce lightning by bumping up against each other and creating static charges through ionized water droplets. Not only do cumulonimbus clouds produce typical rain and hail, they sometimes cause flash flooding.
