At the boundary lines of air masses with different densities and/or temperature.
There are cold fronts, warm fronts and occluded fronts.
Cold fronts usually move faster than warm fronts.

∙ 13y agoWhen a depression (or a low pressure system) forms, it usually consists of a warm front and a faster moving cold front. To the north of the warm front is the cool air that was in the area before the depression developed.
As the depression intensifies, the cold front catches the warm front. The line where the two fronts meet is called an occluded front. When an occluded front passed overhead, you feel changes in temperature and wind speed.
A cold occlusion occurs when the air behind the occluded front is colder than the air ahead of it. The cold occlusion acts in a similar way to a cold front in that the the cold air behind the front undercuts the cool air ahead of it.
The other type of occluded front is the warm occlusion.
A warm occlusion occurs when the air behind the occluded front is warmer than the air ahead of it. The warm occlusion acts in a similar way to a warm front in that the cool air behind the front is lighter than the cold air ahead of the front. This causes the cool air to pass over the top of the cold air.
Occluded front is forms when a warm air mass is caught between two cooler air masses.The warm air mass is cut off, occluded , from the ground.The occluded warm front may cause clouds and precipitation.

∙ 15y agoI believe an occluded fronts occurs where ever cold air catches up to warm air and creates precipitation and/or storms.

What happens after a occluded front?
After an occluded front passes temperatures drop if it was a cold front, and rise if it was a warm front. Pressure rises, and there is light-to-moderate precipitation, followed by clearing. Visibility improves and there is a slight drop in the dew-point if it is a cold-occluded front and a slight rise if a warm-occluded front.
Describe the weather before and after an occluded front?
The weather before an occluded front is usually warm and humid. After an occluded front, the air is typically drier and cooler.
What kind of front is created when a cold front overtakes a warm front?
