When warm water meets cold wind two distinct weather patterns can occur. First the water can cool the air creating a decrease in temperature. In this case the air is cooled by the evaporation of the warm water and the wind carries it away. Second the wind can act as a barrier preventing the warm water from cooling the air. The warm water is trapped by the cold wind causing a rise in temperature.
- In the first case warm water cools the air creating a decrease in temperature.
- In the second case the wind acts as a barrier trapping the warm water and causing a rise in temperature.

What occurs when a mass of cold air moves into a mass of warm air?
What happens is similar to when a warm air mass meets a cold air mass: the Cold Air Mass is forced to Subside beneath the Warm Air Mass. Thusly the warm air is uplifted, it cools and Rain is formed. When a Warm Air Mass meets a Cold Air Mass, the warm air is [again] forced to Rise above the Cold Air Mass, it cools and Rain is formed.
