It flows to the lower pressure air over the land. Warmer, less dense air over the land rises and flows to the ocean. 2) Land Breeze: At night, the air over the land is colder and higher pressure, because the sun has gone down. The air moves toward the ocean because the air over the ocean is now warmer and lower pressure. The air over the ocean rises and travels towards the land. m= __________________________ c= ___________________________ T= ________________________ P=_______________________ Description of weather: Description of weather: Where does this air mass form? Where does this air mass form? Description of weather: Description of weather: Where does this air mass form? Where does this air mass form? Fronts: Draw the symbols for each type of front. Cold Front: Cold air mass invades a warm air mass Cold air sinks and slides under warm air Rainstorms or thunderstorms develop Warm Front: Warm air mass invades a cold air mass Warm air slides up and over the cool air Rain or snow often occurs Stationary Front: A cold front or warm front stays in place for several days Does not invade another front Clouds and precipitation often form at boundary Occluded Front: Two masses of cold air meet High winds and heavy rains or snow
