How does a cold front develops?
A cold front develops when a cold air mass advances, lifting the air in a warm air mass.
Does a warm front form when a cold air mass moves into a warm air mass?
No. The warm air mass always rises above the cold air mass. And if the cold air is advancing, that makes it a cold front.
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass its called a what?
When a cold FRONT catches up to a warm FRONT it is called an occluded front.When a cold AIR MASS displaces a warmer AIR MASS it is a cold front.Occluded front
What air mass chases what air mass in a cold front?

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 type of weather front forms when a cold air mass pushes a warm air mass?
If the cold air is advancing, that makes it a cold front.
What are air masses bend at boundaries to form?
The boundaries between air masses are called front. The types of air mass and movements involved determine the type of front. Warm front: a warm air mass plows into a cold air mass. Cold front: a cold air mass plows into a warm air mass. Stationary front: The warm and cold air masses move little relative to one another. Occluded front: A cold front catches up with a warm front, sending the warm air mass aloft. Dry line: a dry air mass plows into a moist air mass.
