Cold and Warm Fronts?
A cold front is the transition zone were a cold air mass replaces a warm air mass. A warm front is a transition zone were a warm air mass replaces a cold air mass.
Does a warm front form when a cold air mass moves into a warm air mass?
No. The warm air mass always rises above the cold air mass. And if the cold air is advancing, that makes it a cold front.
What occurs when a mass of cold air moves into a mass of warm air?
What happens is similar to when a warm air mass meets a cold air mass: the Cold Air Mass is forced to Subside beneath the Warm Air Mass. Thusly the warm air is uplifted, it cools and Rain is formed. When a Warm Air Mass meets a Cold Air Mass, the warm air is [again] forced to Rise above the Cold Air Mass, it cools and Rain is formed.
When a warm air mass bumps into a cold air mass what is created?
When a warm air mass pushes into a cold air mass the result is a warm front, which usually results in rain showers.
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass its called a what?
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

When a cold air mass reaches a warm air mass the result is usually?
Either a tornado or thunderstorm,as warm and cold air masses fight as the warm air mass escalates over the cold air mass.
When cold air mass moves into a warm air mass causing a cold front the warm air mass is?
The warm air mass is forced to rise, creating convection and precipitation.
What happens when a warm air mass moves into a cold air mass?
The warm air mass is forced up and over the cold air mass, resulting in the development of a cold front.
When a warm air mass bumps into a cold air mass what is created?
When a warm air mass pushes into a cold air mass the result is a warm front, which usually results in rain showers.
What happens when a warm air mass meets with a cold air mass?
If you mean when a mass of cold air meets a mass of warm air, then a front is created.
When a cold air mass catches up to a warm air mass its called a what?
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
What air mass chases what air mass in a cold front?
cold and warm
When a cold air mass replaces a warm air mass its called a?
Cold
Why doesn't a warm air mass under a cold air mass at a warm front?
Warm air is lighter than cold air, that means that warm air will rise and the cold air will sink.
