When a cold front manages to take over a warm front it is called?

When a cold front overtakes a warm front, it is known as an occluded front. This occurs when the cold air behind the cold front catches up with the warm air ahead of the warm front, forcing the warm air upward.


What weather is behind a cold front that runs into a warm front?

cold air mass & clearing conditions.


How does an occluded front devolope?

When a depression (or a low pressure system) forms, it usually consists of a warm front and a faster moving cold front. To the north of the warm front is the cool air that was in the area before the depression developed. As the depression intensifies, the cold front catches the warm front. The line where the two fronts meet is called an occluded front. When an occluded front passed overhead, you feel changes in temperature and wind speed. A cold occlusion occurs when the air behind the occluded front is colder than the air ahead of it. The cold occlusion acts in a similar way to a cold front in that the the cold air behind the front undercuts the cool air ahead of it. The other type of occluded front is the warm occlusion. A warm occlusion occurs when the air behind the occluded front is warmer than the air ahead of it. The warm occlusion acts in a similar way to a warm front in that the cool air behind the front is lighter than the cold air ahead of the front. This causes the cool air to pass over the top of the cold air.

Occluded front is forms when a warm air mass is caught between two cooler air masses.The warm air mass is cut off, occluded , from the ground.The occluded warm front may cause clouds and precipitation.


What is formed when a cold front over takes a warm front?

When a cold front overtakes a warm front, it forms an occluded front. In this situation, the warm air mass is lifted off the ground as the colder air behind the cold front advances, creating a complex weather pattern with potential for thunderstorms and precipitation.


What is a warm front and a cold front called?

warmer than a cold front and colder than a cold front


What is heavier a warm front or a cold front?

A warm front is generally heavier than a cold front due to the warm air being less dense than cold air. Warm air rises over cold air at a warm front, creating a less steep slope as compared to the lifting of cold air at a cold front.


What front will occur when warm air pushes over cold air?

When warm air pushes into cold air the result is a warm 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".


Why do clouds form behind a moving cold front?

They form from behind the moving cold front because the warm air condenses quickly producing clouds, rain, and stormy weather.


What happens in a occluded front?

At the boundary lines of air masses with different densities and/or temperature. There are cold fronts, warm fronts and occluded fronts. Cold fronts usually move faster than warm fronts.


What happens when a warm front moves into a cold front?

When a warm front moves into a cold front, the warm air gradually rises over the denser cold air. This can lead to the formation of clouds and precipitation. The warm air displaces the cold air, leading to a gradual increase in temperature and humidity.
