What else can I help you with?
Which air mass causes snow?
An arctic air mass typically causes snow, as it brings cold temperatures and moisture to an area, resulting in the development of snowfall.
Is snow produced when a warm front and cold front collide?
No. Snow forms when air that is moist enough rises to an altitude where the temperature is below freezing. Ice crystals that we call snowflakes then form. If it is cold enough near the ground these snowflakes will reach the ground as snow. If it is too warm the snowflakes will melt and become rain.
What is the climate of a blizzard?
Different types of clouds can be involved - nimbostratus, different types of cumulus... the type of cloud isn't at all central to a blizzard. In fact, ground blizzards don't need clouds at all- much of the snow blowing around is lifted from previous falls.
Why is snow cold and why does it have to melt?
snow is really cold water it melts because it gets warm outside and snow can only be in cold areas
Do hurricanes have snow?
No, hurricanes do not have snow. Hurricanes are tropical storms characterized by warm air masses and high humidity, which typically results in heavy rainfall and strong winds. Snow is associated with winter storms and cold air masses.
How do you get snow?
The air has to be cold enough to crystalize the water in the air.
Why does it snow in Washington and Alaska?
Because of the cold air from Canada and the wet air off the ocean when they meet snow happens
If the air is cold and dry what type of snow is made?
Cold, dry air typically produces light, powdery snow. This type of snow is dry, fluffy, and perfect for activities like skiing and snowboarding.
What does snow do to keep winter cold?
Snow insulates the ground. It keeps the ground below it frozen which keeps the air around it cold.
Why does it only snow in the Winter?
Snow forms when the temperature is below freezing, typically in winter. This is because cold air is not able to hold as much moisture as warm air, so when the cold air cools the moisture in the atmosphere, it falls as snow.
Why a cold air return is needed in a furnace?
A cold air return is similar to a return air grille, which is needed for air to travel to the furnace to be filtered, heated OR cooled and then recirculated.
How is the winter air described?
unbearingly cold frosty freezing icey air cold wind ect think of the weather :snow?rain?is the rain cold? is the snow icy? housestones? sorry if this didnt help :) x
When snow forms in clouds the surrounding air warms?
When snow forms in clouds, it means that the air is cold enough for the water vapor to freeze into ice crystals. This process releases a small amount of heat, but overall, the air temperature around the snow-forming cloud remains cold.
What do we call it when warm air meets with cold air?
When warm air meets with cold air, it is called a front. This interaction can lead to the formation of various weather conditions such as rain, thunderstorms, or snow.
What does it look like where snow leopards live?
It is very cold, and the air is thin where wild snow leopards live in the Himalayas.
Which air mass causes snow?
An arctic air mass typically causes snow, as it brings cold temperatures and moisture to an area, resulting in the development of snowfall.
What often falls when a cold front displaces a warm air mass?
Rain or snow.
