Warm Front - Warm Sector

Warm Sector

The warm sector is the area of warmer air behind a warm front, usually between the warm and cold fronts in a depression. Temperatures are often warmer than they are before the warm front or after the cold front. Cloud types can be mixed, but usually consist of stratocumulus, which can range to being broken to covering the entire sky depending on distance from the centre of low pressure.

Famous quotes containing the word warm:

    “that warm metamorphosis of snow
    as gentle as the sort that woodsmen know
    who, lost in the white circle, fall at last
    and dream their way to death.”
    —Patricia K. Page (b. 1916)
