When warm air approaches a large body of cold air what happens to the warm air?
The warm air rises over the cold air mass, creating a boundary known as a front. This can lead to the formation of clouds, precipitation, and sometimes severe weather as the warm air is forced to cool and condense.
What happens to the pressure as a warm from approaches?
As a warm front approaches, the pressure typically decreases. This is because warm air is less dense than cold air, and as the warm front moves in, it displaces the cooler, denser air ahead of it. The resulting decrease in atmospheric pressure can lead to the development of clouds and precipitation, as the warm, moist air rises and cools. Overall, the approach of a warm front is often associated with a gradual drop in pressure.
What front will occur when warm air pushes over cold air?
When warm air pushes into cold air the result is a warm front.
When a warm air mass pushes a cold air mass it forms what?
When a warm air mass pushes against a cold air mass, it can form a warm front. This is characterized by the warm air rising over the denser cold air, leading to a gradual transition in weather conditions as the warm air replaces the cold air.
Why doesn't a warm air mass under a cold air mass at a warm front?
A warm air mass rises over a cold air mass at a warm front because warm air is less dense than cold air. This results in the warm air mass being forced to rise and cool, leading to the formation of clouds and precipitation at the boundary of the two air masses.

What type of front forms when a warm air mass overtakes a slowly moving cold air mass?
A warm front forms when a warm air mass overtakes a slowly moving cold air mass. As the warm air rises over the cold air, it creates a gradual transition zone where the warm air replaces the cold air. This results in a front that brings prolonged precipitation and gradual weather changes.
What causes clouds to form as cold air mass approaches a warm air mass?
Warm arie by it's nature has a high percentage of moisture and cold air is very dry. When the two systems meet the differences cause the condensation of moisture in the form of clouds. They can also be severe enough to cause tornadoes and hail.
Why does warm air slide over cold air at worm fronts?
Warm air is lighter then cold air. So the cold air sinks and the warm air raise.
What is less dense warm air or cold air?
Warm air is less dense (lighter) than cold air..that is why warm air rises and cold air settles
Do winter storms usually start along a?
Yes.To produce snow, you need two things: moisture and cold.When air is cooled, its moisture precipitates out, so cold air contains very little moisture.Warm air, if it passes over water or damp ground, picks up moisture.To get a lot of snow, the cold air has to contact warm moist air.For this to happen, one or both of them has to be moving -- usually as a front.If the cold air is standing still, and a moist warm front approaches, the warm air, being lighter, rides up over the cold air. When the warm air gets cold from the cold air and the high altitude, its moisture drops out in the form of snow, sleet, or rain.If it is cold enough you get a long steady snow.If the warm moist air is standing still and a cold front approaches, the heavier cold air plows under the lighter moist air and forces it upward. Since the cold heavy air can move along the ground faster than warm air can, this often produces strong winds. In the summer this causes thunder storms and tornadoes. In the winter it can produce snow storms or blizzards.
When cold air moves toward warm air it pushes the warm air where?
When cold air moves toward warm air, it pushes the warm air upward because cold air is denser and therefore heavier than warm air. This creates a lifting mechanism known as cold air advection, which can lead to the formation of clouds and precipitation.
What are facts about cold fronts?
There is really nothing interesting about cold fronts. Cold air is overtaking warm air. Since cold air is denser than warm air, cold air goes under a warm air mass.
Warm air and cold are what?
warm air and cold air are both different pressures and density's!!!!
What front will occur when warm air pushes over cold air?
When warm air pushes into cold air the result is a warm front.
What is warm sector?
The area of warm air that lies between a warm front and a cold front. Once the warm front passes the temperature will rise and the skies will clear up. The humidity of the air will increase and continue to do so as the cold front approaches Winds will begin to grow and clouds will gain height and grow bigger as the cold front gets nearer. hope that helps :P :)
