Weather Fronts

The humidity of this area would be

• Low

• High

• Moderate

• Cold

A warm air mass would consist of...

• Stable air, poor visibility, stratiform clouds, low precipitation/or drizzle

• Instability, good visibility, cumuliform clouds, rain hail and snow

• Stable air, cumulus clouds, low precipitation/or drizzle

• Instability, thunderstorms, cumuliform clouds, heavy precipitation

The temperature of this airmass would be...

Unstable air consists of...

• Good visibility

• Poor visibility

• Either

• Low level fog only

On a weather map, this represents

• Cold front

• Cumulus clouds

• Stratus clouds

• Warm front

On a weather map, this represents...

• A cold front

• A warm front

• An occluded front

• Stationary front

When a warm front is approaching a cold front...

• The warm front goes overtop the cold front

• The warm front goes below the cold front and pushes the cold front upwards

• The warm front bounces off the cold front

• They mix together

When a cold front meets a warm front...

A front is...

• an area of high humidity

• consisting of poor visibility, air instability, and precipitation

• where two different air masses meet

• None of the above

The three deciding factors for weather in an air mass are

• Moisture content, cooling process, stability of air

• Moisture content, humidity, stability of air

• Humidity, warm fronts, and cold fronts

• Precipitation, cooling process, and stability of air
