Front and Weather. Different types of fronts produce different patterns of weather. . There are four types of weather fronts:. Evaluation: See worksheet. A - Cold Front B = Warm Front B1. Cool air mas - warm air mass moves in. A2. Warm air mass - cool air mass moves in. B3. Bri An . air mass. is a . large . pool of air having similar temperature and moisture . characteristics. . An air mass occupies thousands of square miles of the Earth's surface. Air masses are . created . Warm Air Front. Warm Air Front. Warm air replaces cold air. w. arm air mass=higher temperature=lesser density. Rainfall increases as the . front approaches. Characteristics. Weather phenomenon. Prior to the Passing of the Front. 1. An air mass is a wide-spread section of the troposphere with uniform . temperature . and . humidity . (moisture). 2. The source region is the geographic location the air mass developed over. .
