A continental tropical air mass is dry and warm because it forms over what?
land near the equator
What type of air mass is usually associated with the eastern side of the mid-latitude cyclone?
The type of air mass that is associated with the eastern side of the mid-latitude cyclone is Maritime-Tropical. Maritime-Tropical is a warm, moist air mass.
What warm air mass influences the weather in the us develops over land?
continental tropical keke wroke diz imagine
What is a characteristic for continental air masses?
Continental Polar cP air mass is an air mass formed over land in a cold region with cold dry airMaritime tropical mT air mass is an air mass that forms over water in a warm region with warm wet air
Where do moist air masses form over?
Moist air masses usually form over warm tropical oceans.
An air mass from the Gulf of Mexico is labeled?
Continental tropical (cT)
Which air masses have warm moist air?
Maritime tropical air masses have warm, moist air.

What is continental tropical air mass like?
The continental tropical air mass is very humid and warm, with lots of rain and a high humidity.
What kind of air would be characteristic of a maritime tropical air mass?
Warm, humid
The difference between maritime tropical and a continental polar aim mass?
The Difference of CT and MTContinental Tropicalair mass is more hot and dry, and forms over water. Maritime Tropical is more warm and moist and forms over land.
What type of air mass forms over tropical waters?
A maritime tropical or warm, moist air mass.
What type of air mass is dry and warm?
it is continental tropical air
Why do tornadoes form when continental and a Polar form?
The terminology here is a bit confused. In weather there are 4 basic types of large-scale air mass: Continental polar air masses come off the land in cold regions and are cool and dry. Maritime polar masses come off the ocean and are cool and somewhat moist. Continental tropical air masses come of the land from warm regions and are warm and dry. Finally maritime tropical masses come off of warm oceans and are warm and moist. When a continental polar air mass pushes into a maritime tropical air mass it forms a cold front. Since cold air is denser than warm air, the tropical air mass is forced upwards. This can trigger thunderstorms. Under the right conditions these storms can produce tornadoes.
