   What is the difference between a cold front and a warm front?

   • Warm fronts do the opposite of cold fronts, so warmer air replaces colder air. Warmer air is less dense, so it will move over the top of colder air as it travels (the opposite of a cold front — see diagram). Warm fronts typically move from south to north in the Northern Hemisphere, with an increase in air temperature and humidity behind them.

   How long is a cold front typically expected to last?

   • The effects from a cold front can last from hours to days. The air behind the front is cooler than the air it is replacing and the warm air is forced to rise, so it cools. As the cooler air cannot hold as much moisture as warm air, clouds form and rain occurs.

   What type of weather is usually associated with a cold front?

   • A cold front is often associated with showers and thunderstorms. As it advances, often quite rapidly (50 to 65 km [30 to 40 miles] per hour), the cold air, which is relatively dense, undercuts the displaced warm air, forcing it to rise.
