What storms and what occur at fronts?
precipitation
Do warm fronts have short violent periods of rain?
Not usually. This is more characteristic of cold fronts.
Why are warm fronts better than cold fronts?
cold fronts bring sever weather when the temperature differance between the cold air and the warm air cold fronts usally produce thunderstorms with heavy precipitation after a warm front passes it is warm
Why does precipitation often happen sat fronts?
In order for precipitation to form along fronts, warm air must rise through cool air. As this warm air cools, it causes the moisture it holds to condensate. Once enough moisture collects, a cloud forms and it rains.
What precipitation can happen in a warm front?
rain and thunderstorms, although violent thunderstorms are more common with the passage of a cold front. Warm fronts tend to create steadier and longer-lasting episodes of precipitation. These are only generalizations, however.
Along which type of front is the intensity of precipation greater but the duration shorter?
The intensity of precipitation is greater but the duration is shorter along a cold front. As a cold front moves through an area, it pushes warm air upward, leading to strong vertical uplift and intense precipitation. However, the cold front typically moves quickly, causing the precipitation to be relatively brief compared to other types of fronts.
Which one of the following is true Cold fronts usually have more gentle slopes than warm fronts or Rains of cold fronts usually last longer than rains of warm fronts?
Neither is true. Warm fronts result in gentler precipitation for longer periods of time.
What do fronts cause?
Precipitation!
What storms and what occur at fronts?
precipitation
What are all the 4 fronts and what do they do?
Warm front--rise in temperature; gentle rain; longer duration Cold front--drop in temperature; violent precipitation including storms; shorter duration Stationary front--many days of precipitation along the frontal boundary Occluded front--precipitation
What kind of information can you get from a map?
precipitation, pressure, fronts
Do warm fronts have short violent periods of rain?
Not usually. This is more characteristic of cold fronts.
What is ana-fronts?
In meteorology, ana-fronts are areas where the warm sector air is rising, and a succession of cloud types and precipitation results.
What causes precipatation at fronts?
you spelled it wrong its precipitation. your answer is the rising of warm air
Weather along most fronts is usually cloudy with precipitation because the warm air along most fronts is usually?
Rising moist air.
What are 4 things that cause change in temperature?
Pressure, Cold Fronts/ Warm Fronts, precipitation, and Energy(Kinetic/Potential) [average KE=Temp]
Why are warm fronts better than cold fronts?
cold fronts bring sever weather when the temperature differance between the cold air and the warm air cold fronts usally produce thunderstorms with heavy precipitation after a warm front passes it is warm
