1. Fronts and Clouds
I can predict the cloud type that will results from various types of fronts.

2. Cold Front Cold air mass overtakes a warm air mass
Move very quickly because cold air is very dense
Associated with cumulus & cumulonimbus clouds ahead of the front in the warm air, producing heavy showers and thunderstorms.
Fast, gusty winds
Areas of low pressure
Followed by cooler temperatures

3. Cold Front Simple 3-D idea:

4. Cold Front

5. Warm Front A warm front overtakes a cold front
Generally associated with stratus type clouds that are high in the atmosphere
Clear weather at first, but rain and thunderstorms may follow
Warm fronts have higher air pressure but are followed by warmer temperatures

6. Warm Front Simple 3-D idea:

7. Warm Front

8. Stationary Front Blue triangles point toward warm air
Red circles point toward cold air
Warm front and cold front meet, and neither overpowers the other
Marked by longer periods of rain, snow, or other precipitation
Wind often blows parallel to front rather than against it
Often occur in low pressure areas

9. Occluded Front
Two cold air masses overtake one warm air mass, pushing it up in between them
Usually form in low pressure areas
Cause extreme weather including a lot of precipitation and bring cumulonimbus or nimbostratus clouds
Wind often changes directions
