How do fronts affect weather changes?
A front is the leading edge of an air mass. So, when a cold front chases a warm front, it's called a depression, which brings rain. When a warm front is on the way, it becomes warm. When the cold front arrives, the warm one is forced to slide up, bringing rain.
Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause what?
Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause fronts or high/low pressure systems. A warm front is when a warm, moist air mass slides up and over a cold air mass, and a cold front is the opposite.
How does a cold front form and what effect does a cold front have on weather?
A cold front forms when colder air advances toward warm air. The cold air wedges under the warm air like a plow. As the war air is lifted, it cools and water vapor condenses, forming clouds. When the temperature difference between the cold and warm air is large, thunderstorms and even tornadoes may form.
What type of weather occurs as a warm front moves through an area?
Cold front: Brings thunderstorms ,snow, heavy rain, and cold dry air Warm front: Brings drizzly rain then clear weather, warm and humid air
What is the similarities between a warm front ans a cold front?
The similarities between a warm front and a cold front are: * they are both fronts * they both form some type of clouds * they both produce some type of rain * they both have warm air rising * they both make some kind of weather TYPE OF : Clouds *Cold:produces different type of cumulus clouds *Warm:produces large area of stratus clouds,usually Rain *cold: heavy rain/T-storms *warm: slow steady Weather *cold: fair/cool after passing *warm:hot/humid after passing
What fronts occur when heavy cold air displaces lighter warm air and pushing it upward?
Cold front.
What is a warm front and a cold front called?
warmer than a cold front and colder than a cold front
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass its called a what?
When a cold FRONT catches up to a warm FRONT it is called an occluded front.When a cold AIR MASS displaces a warmer AIR MASS it is a cold front.Occluded front
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 is a front and what is the difference between a cold front and a warm front?
A warm front occurs when cooler air retreats and warmer air advances. A cold front occurs when cooler air advances, pushing warmer air away. An occluded front occurs when a cold front catches up with a warm front, sending the warmer air aloft. A stationary front occurs when warm and cold air meet, but neither air mass advances.
What is the region called where a warm front and a cold front meet?
an occluded front?
When a warm front goes over a cold front?
That's called an 'occluded' front.
When a cold front manages to take over a warm front it is called a?
occluded front
When a cold air mass replaces a warm air mass it's call a front?
Yes, it would be called a cold front, as the cold air is replacing the warm.
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.
How is stationary Front form?
A area between a warm and cold fronts that remains not replaceable is called a stationary front
When the cold air overtakes the warm air mass it is called a warm front?
sure
