Basically, the temperature is different.
Whereas cold air can feel cold to a person around 10 degrees Celsius and under,
air could be considered warm from around 20 degrees Celsius and over..
Obviously if the temperature is quite high, for example, 80 degrees Celsius it can not only feel warm to a person, but right out hot.
The measurements here are very relative.
But yes, the difference between cold air and warm air is definitely the temperature, lower temperature for cold, higher temperature for warm.

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.
Cold and Warm Fronts?
A cold front is the transition zone were a cold air mass replaces a warm air mass. A warm front is a transition zone were a warm air mass replaces a cold air mass.
What are the four types of fronts?
Cold Front-When a fast moving cold air mass runs into a slowly moving warm air mass Warm Front-A fast moving warm air mass collides with a slow moving cold air mass Stationary Front-When a cold and a warm air mass meet, but neither one has enough force to move the other Occluded Front-When a warm air was is caught between two cold air masses
What front is created when warm air and cold air collide?
That depends. If the cold air pushes into the warm air, moving it out of the way it is called a cold front. If the cold air retreats with warm air coming in to to replace it, the front is a warm front. if the two air masses come together along a boundary that does not move the result is a stationary front.
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.
How is cold front different from a warm front?
Warm air is air that has a relatively high temperature. A cold front is a weather phenomenon that occurs when an cooler air mass pushes into a warmer one and displaces it.
How is a warm front different from cold front?
Warm air is air that has a relatively high temperature. A cold front is a weather phenomenon that occurs when an cooler air mass pushes into a warmer one and displaces it.
What front will occur when warm air pushes over cold air?
When warm air pushes into cold air the result is a warm front.
Describe the four major types of fronts?
1) Warm front - warm air mass replacing a cold air mass at ground level. Typically shifts wind southeasterly to southwesterly. 2) Cold front - Cold air replacing warm air at ground level. Tyoically shifts southwesterly to northwesterly 3) Stationary front - Equal amount of energy between warm and cold air masses creating a "stalemate".
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.
Where cold surface air is replacing warm air the boundary separating the different bodies of air is termed as?
Cold Front
Cold and Warm Fronts?
A cold front is the transition zone were a cold air mass replaces a warm air mass. A warm front is a transition zone were a warm air mass replaces a cold air mass.
What front involves three air masses of different temperatures cold or warm?
weather front

Why can a cold front push a warm front?
Cold air is denser than warm air. Which allows it to slide under that warm air and displace it.
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.
