When does a cold front occur?

A cold front occurs when a cold air and a cold air mass hits each other and the warm air rises


What is a front and what is the difference between a cold front and a warm front?

A warm front occurs when cooler air retreats and warmer air advances. A cold front occurs when cooler air advances, pushing warmer air away. An occluded front occurs when a cold front catches up with a warm front, sending the warmer air aloft. A stationary front occurs when warm and cold air meet, but neither air mass advances.


What kind of front occurs when a cold front moves over a warm front?

occluded


What kind of front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet and no movement occurs?

A stationary front


What occurs when a cold air mass displaces a warmer air mass'?

When does a front occur?

Cold fronts occur when masses of cold air with varying temperatures collide. When this occurs, it results in the warm air rising and being replaced with the cold air.


Does the precipitation associated with a cold front come before or after the front?

The precipitation generally occurs before the front moves in.


What type of front occurs when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet but does not move?

A stationary front.


What is an occlude front?

A cold front normally moves at twice the speed of a warm front. An occluded front forms when a cold front catches up with a warm front. Occluded fronts are of two types:1. Cold occlusion : If the airmass of the advancing cold front is colder than the cool airmass of the warm front, the advancing cold front undercuts and lifts both the warm and cool airmass of the warm front. The weather is initially warm front type but during the passage of front, showery weather of cold front occurs. This occlusion is common in summer. 2. Warm occlusion : When the airmass behind the advancing cold front is less colder (cool) than the cold airmass of the warm front ahead, the advancing cold front overrides the warm front ahead. The weather in such a case is similar to that of warm front. This type of occlusion occurs in winters and is less common.


What kinds of front would an occluded front bring?

An occluded front would bring colder weather. This type of front occurs when a cold front and warm front meet up with one another. The result is the cold air is pushed down.

How does a cold front affects CA?

Cold fronts tend to effect the eastern states more than the western states. However, California can get cooler weather when a cold front occurs which can effect fishing.
