warm front is warmer than the air behind the overtaking cold front
Tornadoes are most likely to occur with which type of thunderstorms? correct answersSteady-
state thunderstorms associated with cold fronts or squall lines
Which type of cloud is associated with violent turbulence and a tendency toward the production
of funnel clouds? correct answersCumulonimbus mamma

during the early evening, cool cloudless night with light winds, and favorable topography
Advection fog is formed as a result of correct answersmoist air moving over a colder surface

precipitation
