Question

Will a continental polar air mass most likely be found north or south of a front east of the Rocky Mountains in the central United States? Will a maritime tropical air mass lie north or south of the front? Continental polar air masses usually lie of a front. Maritime tropical air masses usually lie of a front.

Answer 1

1. North because it is polar continental and so must come from a higher latitude.
2. South because it is tropical maritime so must come from a lower latitude with water.
