weather remains changeable
and there are often rain
showers and thunderstorms. The air temperature decrea-
ses.
Warm front
(red line with
red semi-cir-
cles)A warm front may cause
more prolonged steady rain,
more cloud cover and a slow
rise in temperature.

gles)The weather front moves
minimally. The weather

catches up and joins the
warm front ahead of it, an
occluded front is formed. The
weather remains changeable
