Need someone with more knowledge to clarify a detail

A warm front is a boundary between an advancing warm air mass and the colder air mass it is displacing

Warm air is forced to rise by a cold front and "has a gradual slop of 130"... 130 whats? Degrees? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Heritage.john (talk • contribs) 19:53, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Long Lost Article

I found this article when looking for articles that redirected into Surface weather analysis. A subarticle was created for weather fronts. The question is, is this article worth keeping, or should it merely redirect into weather fronts, since weather fronts has more information on the topic? Thegreatdr 15:15, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Placement of this article

There does not seem to be much interest in this article, but in response to the "Long Lost Article" question I vote for moving the material on "warm front" into the article on "weather fronts".

Clarification requested on "slope of 130"

The article states that “The boundary between the two air masses has a gradual slope of 130”, but the unit of slope is not defined. I doubt that a slope of 130 degrees is meant, perhaps what is meant is a slope of one unit of climb for every 130 units of forward motion?

W.F.Galway (talk) 01:36, 17 July 2009 (UTC) This doesn't really describe Warm front, and more or less, easy to understand[reply]

Clarification requested on Winds direction

Are the directions for the winds before and after the passage of the front for where the wind is from or where the wind is going towards? It would be normal to give wind direction as where the wind is coming from but I feel this could be stated explicitly.
