tornado
When a warm air mass and a cold air mass stall and remain stationary over an area, it is called a stationary front. This can lead to persistent and prolonged periods of weather, often bringing extended periods of precipitation or clear skies depending on the location of the front.
Cold 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.
When a cold front overtakes a warm front, it is called an occluded front. This occurs when the cold air advances faster than the warm air, leading to a complex weather pattern with a mix of precipitation.
When a cold front moves into a warm front, it typically undercuts the warm front and forces it aloft, resulting in the warm front being lifted off the ground. This process can lead to the formation of a stationary front or occluded front.
This weather phenomenon is known as a warm front. Warm air is lifted over denser, cooler air along the boundary, resulting in clouds, precipitation, and possible thunderstorms as the warm air displaces the cold air.
This is a warm front.

When a warm air mass moves into an area where a cold air mass is located, it is called a warm front. At a warm front, the warm air mass rises over the cold air mass, leading to gradual temperature increases and cloud formation.
When a warm air mass and a cold air mass stall and remain stationary over an area, it is called a stationary front. This can lead to persistent and prolonged periods of weather, often bringing extended periods of precipitation or clear skies depending on the location of the front.

That's called an 'occluded' front.

Cold 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.
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.
