When warm air moves over cold air a warm front forms. The warm air tends to rise along a gentle slope above the cold air and form layers of clouds?
Stratus clouds and drizzly rain :)
What kind of clouds are likely to from at the edge of this front?
It really depends on the type of front. There are two types of fronts, warm and cold. Different types of clouds appear at different points as the front passes over head.
Where does the warm air come from in a tornado?
The warm air usually originates from a tropical or subtropical latitude, usually from over a warm body of water such as the Gulf of Mexico.
Is Vega a small mass star or a large mass star?
Vega is just over twice the mass of the Sun.
Which body accounts for more than 99 percent of the mass of the solar system?
The sun contains over 99% of the mass of the solar system. The numbers reveal that the sun actually contains over 99.8% of the mass of the solar system.
What is formed when a cold front over takes a warm front?
When a fast moving cold air mass collides into a warm air mass.
What happens a cold front takes over a warm air mass?
An "occlusion" forms.
When a warm air mass and a cold air mass stall to each other what is that called?
A stationery front. A cold front is where cold air gains over warm air. Warm front is where warm air gains over cold air. An Occluded front is where warm air is pushed up and cold aair over takes at lower levels.
What happens when a warm air mass moves into a cold air mass?
The warm air mass is forced up and over the cold air mass, resulting in the development of a cold front.
When warm air mass moves over a cold air mass it is called a?
This is a warm front.
When a mass of warm air overtakes a cold air mass and moves over it?
Warm front.
When a cold air mass reaches a warm air mass the result is usually?
Either a tornado or thunderstorm,as warm and cold air masses fight as the warm air mass escalates over the cold air mass.
Warm air moving over a cold air mass will produce a?
warm front
What happens to warm air as it takes over a cold air mass?
The warm air and cold air will end up combining and forming bad weather such as rain, tornadoes or other natural disaster's such as hurricanes or thunder storms.
What weather happens in a warm front?
A warm air mass catches up to a moving cold air mass, sliding over it.
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.
Why does a cold air mass always sink below a warm air mass?
Because warm air has more energy and rises, so slides over the cold air.
