fronts.jpgMeteorologists often discuss FRONTS on the weather forecast, but these do not just bring warm and cold air – they are much more complicated than that.

Today we drew diagrams of each of the four types of fronts, along with the clouds they form, the weather they bring, and the way they move:

  • Warm front
  • Cold front
  • Occluded front
  • Stationary front
