What weather is formed when two air masses combine?
when 2 air masses combine the colder one is forced under the warmer one because of density differences. there are usually thunderstorms on fronts
What 2 properties are used to characterized air masses?
Temperature and moisture content are used to characterize air masses. Temperature describes how warm or cold the air mass is, while moisture content indicates how much moisture is present in the air mass.
What are 2 main characters of air masses?
The two main characters of air masses are temperature and humidity. Temperature determines whether the air mass is warm or cold, while humidity refers to the moisture content of the air mass. These characteristics influence the weather conditions associated with the air mass.
What type of front forms when a warm air mass is trapped by 2 cold air masses?
Stationary Front
What types of rainfall are there?
The main types of rainfall are convective, frontal, orographic, and cyclonic. Convective rainfall occurs when warm air rises and cools, leading to condensation and precipitation. Frontal rainfall happens when two air masses with different temperatures meet, causing the warm air to rise and cool. Orographic rainfall occurs when moist air is forced to rise over a mountain range, cooling and creating precipitation. Cyclonic rainfall results from the convergence of air masses around a low-pressure system, leading to widespread precipitation.
What happens at the boundary between 2 air masses?
At the boundary between two air masses, known as a front, there is a contrast in temperature, humidity, and density. This contrast can lead to the formation of weather phenomena such as storms, rain, or snow. The interaction between the two air masses can result in changes in wind direction and speed.
Area where 2 types of air masses meet?
A "front".
What does front mean in science terms?
A boundary between 2 air masses of different density moisture or temperature is a front.
Where are clouds most likely to form?
Rainy unsettled weather forms when two air fronts meet each other. One air front is usually cold air and the other has warmer air. When these air masses meet head on it is likely there will be a thunderstorm.
What weather is formed when two air masses combine?
when 2 air masses combine the colder one is forced under the warmer one because of density differences. there are usually thunderstorms on fronts
2 main characteristics used to classify air masses?
temperature and mostiure
What 2 properties are used to characterized air masses?
Temperature and moisture content are used to characterize air masses. Temperature describes how warm or cold the air mass is, while moisture content indicates how much moisture is present in the air mass.
What are 2 types of air masses that affect Wisconsin?
One of it is continental polar(cP)

What type of front forms when a warm air mass is trapped by 2 cold air masses?
Stationary Front
Where would you expect to find a storm?
There's probably going to have some signs that might lead to the storm.
What Causes a front?
a front causes rain or a storm along the line where 2 masses meet they push against each other
