A continental polar air mass are cold to cool and dry, but are not as cold as the Arctic air masses. Continental Polar air masses form over Canada and Siberia. These air masses bring cold air during the winter and cool, relatively clear, rather pleasant weather in the summer. The air mass is stable and usually prevents cloud formation.

Which air mass forms north of 50 degrees north latitude or south of 50 degrees south latitude?
polar continental air mass
Cold air masses form at high latitudes are called?
polar air mass (meteorology), air mass that forms over land or water in the higher latitudes.
Air mass that forms over a cold region is called?
Air masses that are cold and forms over polar regions is polar. A cold front occurs when a cold air mass meets and displaces a warm air mass. A front that forms when a warm air mass is trapped between cold air masses and forced to rise is called a occluded front.
What is an air mass that forms over dry land?
Continental air masses. Tropical air masses form over water.
Which are the characteristics of a maritime polar air mass?
A maritime polar air mass is characterized as a cold and moist air mass.
Where does a continental polar air masses form?
A continental polar air mass forms over land in northern Canada. A continental polar air mass forms inland from the oceans of Northern Russia, Siberia and Northern Canada.

An air mass that forms over water at a high latitude is most likely?
Martime Polar (mP).
What is an air mass that forms over dry land?
