What happens to a moving air mass as it enters a mountainous region?
If the clouds are lower then the tops of the mountains they are caught and rain themselves out, which is why there are usually arid plains or deserts on/beside a mountain range. It is called a rain shadow.
What is the rain shadow of a mountain?
A rain shadow is a dry area on the leeward side of a mountain where precipitation is significantly reduced. As moist air moves up and over the mountain, it cools, causing the air to release most of its moisture as precipitation on the windward side. By the time the air reaches the leeward side, it has lost much of its moisture, resulting in drier conditions.
When the moist humid air moves into an area the barometer will be?
The barometer will likely register a drop in air pressure as the moist humid air moves into an area. This drop in pressure is due to the warm moist air being less dense than cool dry air, leading to lower pressure readings on the barometer.
When air moves away from the tropics and toward the poles it becomes .?
cool and dry
How does orographic precipitation occur?
Orographic precipitation occurs when moist air is forced to rise over a mountain barrier. As the air rises, it cools and condenses, leading to the formation of clouds and eventually precipitation. The windward side of the mountain typically receives more precipitation, while the leeward side (rain shadow) experiences drier conditions.
What happens to a moist air mass as it moves up in the atmosphere?
It cools and condenses
What happens to a mountain in a hurricane?
A mountain will not be affected much by a hurricane, if at all. However, if a hurricane moves over land, and especially mountains it will rapidly weaken.

When was Ming Lo Moves the Mountain created?
Ming Lo Moves the Mountain was created in 1982.
A notherly wind comes from the south and moves toward the north?
This is incorrect. A northerly wind comes from the north and moves toward the south.
What happens to the sind speed as the air pressure gets lower..why?
It increases. High pressure air always moves toward low pressure areas. When there is low pressure, the high pressure moves in, and the movement of air creates wind.
What is warm air moves from the beach toward the ocean?
Warm air moves from a beach toward the ocean by convection.

By the time the air reaches the leeward side, it has lost much of its moisture, resulting in drier conditions.
What happens to air pressure as a warm front moves toward and then over an area?
As a warm front moves toward and then over an area, air pressure typically decreases. This is due to the warm air rising over the denser, cooler air ahead of the front, which leads to lower pressure at the surface.
