OK first of all I know you guys have got this question from K12.
But anyway here is the answer:
Sometimes warm air masses can get caught between 2 cold fronts which can for
It's an occluded front.occluded front.When a cold front overtakes a warm front, the warm air mass is lifted entirely off the ground and an occluded front forms.This is an occluded front.An occluded front occurs
cold front, a warm front an occluded front a stationary front
After an occluded front passes temperatures drop if it was a cold front, and rise if it was a warm front. Pressure rises, and there is light-to-moderate precipitation, followed by clearing. Visibility improves and there is a slight drop in the dew-point if it is a cold-occluded front and a slight rise if a warm-occluded front.
When a fast moving cold air mass collides into a warm air mass.

It depends on which air mass replaces which in the area. If a cold air mass advances and pushes a warm air mass away, the result is a cold front. When a cold air mass retreats and is replaced by a warm air mass, the result is a warm front. When the two air masses meet and neither advances, the result is a stationary front.

An 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.
An occluded front.
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".
