How and why do clouds form a front?

Clouds form along fronts when there is some type of uplift of air. For example in a warm front, there is cool air ahead of the front and so the warm air rides up the back side of the cool air kinda like a giant ramp and condensation first occurs at high altitudes causing the formation of cirrus clouds and any type of cirro form clouds. Cirro form clouds are mainly composed of ice crystals since they occur at such high altitudes. Another example of cloud formation with fronts is with a cold front. With a cold front there is vertical uplift of warm moist air up and over a cold air mass causing rapid condensation and the formation of cumulonimbus clouds which are essentially thunderstorm clouds.


What front comes with cumulonimbus clouds?

Cumulonimbus can occur along any type of front but are most common along cold fronts.


Are clouds occluded?

No. Clouds can occur along occluded fronts but they can occur along any type of front or without any large scale weather patter.

What cloud type is associated with warm fronts?

Before the warm front there are cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. Nearer to the front the clouds are stratoform and lower, often precipitating.


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.


What are clouds pushed along by the jet stream?

The only type of clouds that occur high enough to be propelled by the jet stream are cirrus clouds, which are composed mostly of ice crystals.


What type of front is approaching if you see cirrus clouds high in the sky EXPLAIN how you know?

Cirrus clouds are followed by an approaching warm front.
