Expert Solution
Step 1

One of the most prominent features of middle-latitude weather is how suddenly and dramatically it can change. Most of these sudden changes are associated with the passage of weather fronts. An atmospheric front is a surface that separates air masses of different densities, one of which is usually warmer and has more moisture than the other.
