A front marks the boundary between air masses with different characteristics.
This forms a front it can be a cold or warm front
It depends on which air mass replaces which in the area. If a cold air mass advances and pushes a warm air mass away, the result is a cold front. When a cold air mass retreats and is replaced by a warm air mass, the result is a warm front. When the two air masses meet and neither advances, the result is a stationary front.
warm front
A front forms. The type of front depends on which air mass is advancing. If the cool air mass advances, it is a cold front. If a warm air mass advances, it is a warm front. If neither advances, it is a stationary front.
a front
a cold front is a boundry of advancing mass of colled air a warm front is the oppposite its a mass of warm air
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
A cold front is formed when a cool air mass displaces a warm air mass. Cold fronts typically bring cooler temperatures, thunderstorms, and sometimes severe weather as the denser cool air displaces the warm air along the front.

When a cold air mass retreats and is replaced by a warm air mass, the result is a warm front. When the two air masses meet and neither advances, the result is a stationary front.
The leading edge of a mass of air with certain, uniform moisture and temperature characteristics is called a front. i.e. The leading edge of a relatively warm air mass is called a warm front. The leading edge of a cooler air mass is called a cold front.
When the cold front comes, the air mass gets lighter and thinner.
When a warm air mass moves into an area where a cold air mass is located, it is called a warm front. At a warm front, the warm air mass rises over the cold air mass, leading to gradual temperature increases and cloud formation.
