Warm Front Weather
•Clouds are deepest just north of the warm front boundary and progressively becomes thinner and higher toward the north.
•The intensity of the precipitation depends on the stability of the warm air.
•If the warm air is conditionally unstable, thunderstorms may develop over the warm front.
•If the warm air is stable, the clouds will
be layered.
•If the temperature in the cold air is below freezing, snow, ice pellets, or freezing rain may occur.
