What is a wind front?

Answer 1

A weather front is a boundary separating two masses of air of varying densities. The two kinds of weather front are a cold front and a warm front.
A weather front is a boundary separating two masses of air of different densities, and is the principal cause of meteorological phenomena. In surface weather analyses, fronts are depicted using various colored lines and symbols, depending on the type of front. The air masses separated by a front usually differ in temperature and humidity. Cold fronts may feature narrow bands of thunderstorms and severe weather, and may on occasion be preceded by squall lines or dry lines. Warm fronts are usually preceded by stratiform precipitation and fog. The weather usually clears quickly after a front's passage. Some fronts produce no precipitation and little cloudiness, although there is invariably a wind shift.[1] Cold fronts and occluded fronts generally move from west to east, while warm fronts move poleward. Because of the greater density of air in their wake, cold fronts and cold occlusions move faster than warm fronts and warm occlusions. Mountains and warm bodies of water can slow the movement of fronts.[2] When a front becomes stationary, and the density contrast across the frontal boundary vanishes, the front can degenerate into a line which separates regions of differing wind velocity, known as a shearline. This is most common over the open ocean.

Answer 2

It's easiest to describe by imaging watching sea-waves approaching you as you stand on the shore. The front of each ridge of water is literally that - the wave-front. (Though remember that the water itself is not travelling until the wave collapses in shallow water). More formally it's a countour line of the wave in a plane perpendicular to the wave's direction, i.e, parallel to the crest and trough.

Is a surface that connects the same points on adjacent waves.

Answer 3

A wind front is a boundary where two different air masses with contrasting temperatures or humidity levels meet. When these air masses collide, the resulting wind front can create changes in weather conditions such as precipitation, thunderstorms, or shifts in wind direction. Wind fronts are commonly associated with the movement of weather systems across the Earth's surface.

Answer 4

It is when a lot of wind comes through your area that you live in.
