warm front
warm front A surface where advancing warm air displaces colder air, e.g. in midlatitude
depressions where, owing to the convergence of the
air masses and the difference of density between them, the warm air tends to rise over the cold air. Slopes of warm fronts are typically less than 1:100 and the ascent of air is gradual. Stratiform cloud develops in the rising air. High
cirrus cloud followed by lower and thickening
altostratus indicate the approaching front. As the frontal contact with the ground approaches, heavy
nimbostratus and much rain may occur. Passage of the front is marked by a rise of temperature, clearing of precipitation, and (in the northern hemisphere) the wind
veering typically from south or south-easterly to south-westerly.
