  "question": "Considering the significant weather events reported on December 15th, including hail and thunderstorms, as well as high wind gusts, which of the following statements accurately describes the expected impact on the subsequent day's temperature trends and possible weather conditions for December 16th?\n\nA) The extreme fluctuations in temperature due to the preceding storm system typically lead to a rapid drop in temperature, potentially triggering additional severe weather warnings as the temperature stabilizes. \n\nB) In the aftermath of such storms, temperatures are expected to increase as warm air invades the region following the severe weather events to maintain stability in weather patterns.\n\nC) Following the thunderstorm activity, temperatures are often moderated by cloud cover which can delay cooling, however, the significant drop observed is consistent, indicating a complete clearance of clouds.\n\nD) Due to the instability created by the previous day\u2019s weather, a return to the normal seasonal temperature range is anticipated, yet atypically high temperatures may occur as residual effects of the thunderstorms linger.",
