Answer 1

Answer:

1. Many fronts cause weather events such as rain, thunderstorms, gusty winds, and tornadoes. At a cold front, there may be dramatic thunderstorms. At a warm front, there may be low stratus clouds. Usually, the skies clear once the front has passed.

2. As the warm moist air rises, towering clouds often form releasing energy in the form of brief, intense rain storms with high winds and lightning. On the other hand, warm fronts will ride up and over cold air near the surface. As it rises, the air cools and the humidity condenses to form clouds and precipitation.
