Questions for Discussion: Compare and Contrast Warm and Cold Fronts
- Why do clouds form as warm air rises and not at lower altitudes?
- Why do warm fronts produce different types of clouds than cold fronts?
- Compare the animations of the movement of a cold front and a warm front. How are these two processes similar? How are they different?
- Why do you think the fronts are shown moving from left to right in this animation?
