🔍 Key Concepts

• Cold front characteristics and how they move compared to warm fronts • Typical vertical development of clouds in unstable air • Difference between high, middle, and low/vertical cloud types (cirrus, alto-, cumulus, cumulonimbus)

💭 Think About

• Think about what kind of weather a cold front usually brings: gentle layered clouds or more intense, showery, possibly stormy weather? • Which cloud types are associated with strong updrafts and tall vertical clouds rather than flat, layered sheets? • Which choices list clouds that are mostly high and wispy versus those that are tall and vertically developed?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options include towering or vertically developed clouds (often linked with heavy showers or thunderstorms). • Eliminate options that only contain high-level, thin, icy clouds usually seen well ahead of fronts. • Recall that a fast-moving cold front tends to produce short-duration, more intense precipitation rather than widespread light rain.
