What type of weather in a occluded front?

A cold front normally moves at twice the speed of a warm front. An occluded front forms when a cold front catches up with a warm front. Occluded fronts are of two types:1. Cold occlusion : If the airmass of the advancing cold front is colder than the cool airmass of the warm front, the advancing cold front undercuts and lifts both the warm and cool airmass of the warm front. The weather is initially warm front type but during the passage of front, showery weather of cold front occurs. This occlusion is common in summer.2. Warm occlusion : When the airmass behind the advancing cold front is less colder (cool) than the cold airmass of the warm front ahead, the advancing cold front overrides the warm front ahead. The weather in such a case is similar to that of warm front. This type of occlusion occurs in winters and is less common.Considering occlusion occurs near the center of a mid-latitude cyclone that has matured, the weather would be very unsettled with rain/snow likely and maybe thunderstorms as well, potentially over a prolonged period.Glad I could help! :)

What causes air to cool by simply passing through fan blades?

The fan doesn't cool the air. The fan simply moves the air. The cooling happens whenair moves over your skin. When that happens, it causes moisture on your skin toevaporate, and the evaporated moisture draws heat away with it.That's why the old-fashioned way was to wave a fancy decorated paper fan ... or asection of newspaper ... back and forth in front of your face. Just to get the air moving.The electric fan just saves you the trouble of waving your hand back and forth.
