Arab Weather - The abbreviation CAPE in meteorology means Convective Available Potential Energy.

It is a measure of the energy in the atmosphere that can generate stormy or unstable weather, such as thunderstorms. The higher the CAPE value, the more likely severe weather is to occur, as it shows how much energy can be used to cause air to rise vertically, increasing the strength of storms.

CAPE is measured in joules per kilogram (J/kg), and can be a useful tool in predicting the strength of thunderstorms.
