What is the weather along a front?
its is misty and cold on A COLD FRONT AND MUGGY AND WARM ON A WARM FRONT
Does precipitation come before or after a warm front?
Not normally before a warm front, precipitation comes before and after a cold front. When you have warm air and a cold front comes through, you mix warm with cold and that brings precipitation.
What is a warm front and a cold front called?
warmer than a cold front and colder than a cold front
Which front moves through an area faster a cold front or warm front?
a warm front moves faster then a cold front because it is less dense
What is the difference between an ordinary front and an occluded front?
An occluded front is a cold front that is moving faster than a warm front. The cold front soon "catches up" to the warm warm and they merge together.
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.
What happens when a warm front moves into a cold front?
warm front rises on top of the cold front.

Describe the four major types of fronts?
1) Warm front - warm air mass replacing a cold air mass at ground level. Typically shifts wind southeasterly to southwesterly. 2) Cold front - Cold air replacing warm air at ground level. Tyoically shifts southwesterly to northwesterly 3) Stationary front - Equal amount of energy between warm and cold air masses creating a "stalemate".
What is an occlude front?
A cold front normally moves at twice the speed of a warm front. An occluded front forms when a cold front catches up with a warm front. Occluded fronts are of two types:1. Cold occlusion : If the airmass of the advancing cold front is colder than the cool airmass of the warm front, the advancing cold front undercuts and lifts both the warm and cool airmass of the warm front. The weather is initially warm front type but during the passage of front, showery weather of cold front occurs. This occlusion is common in summer. 2. Warm occlusion : When the airmass behind the advancing cold front is less colder (cool) than the cold airmass of the warm front ahead, the advancing cold front overrides the warm front ahead. The weather in such a case is similar to that of warm front. This type of occlusion occurs in winters and is less common.

What is a warm front and a cold front called?
warmer than a cold front and colder than a cold front
Will a warm front overtake a cold front?
No. Because of the manner in which frontal systems operate, a cold front will overtake a warm front to form an occluded front.
Which front moves through an area faster a cold front or a warm front?
a warm front moves faster then a cold front because it is less dense
Which front moves through an area faster a cold front or warm front?
a warm front moves faster then a cold front because it is less dense
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.
