The difference between the occluded and cold front is as follows:
Explanation:
- A cold front forms at leading edge of the colder air mass. The temperature of the wind currents will change rapidly at short distance. The change in moisture content also occurs, the higher moisture content comes ahead and the the lower remains behind.
- The occluded front develop when the cold front overtake the warm front. The occlusion can be both warm and cold in nature. In the case of the cold occlusion the cold air can be found behind the front whereas the warm occlusion can be found behind the front.
- The cold front can bring thunderstorm in the region whereas the the occluded front can bring strong winds and precipitation.
