Upper Air Characteristics
Upper air soundings taken through either front
show typical cold or warm front soundings.
Figure
4-5-5.Illustration of warm type of occlusion. (A) Vertical structure through
points A and A; (B) horizontal structure.
Those
taken that intersect both fronts show two inversions. The warm
type of occlusion (like the cold type) appears on upper air charts at
approximately the same pressure level. However, one distinct difference
does appear in the location of the
warm isotherm ridge associated with occlusions. The warm isotherm ridge lies
just to the rear of the occlusion
at the peak of its development.
