A warm air mass is sandwiched between two colder or cooler air masses. Creating days of unstable weather.

A Vortex of spinning air which has come down from the cloud and is making contact with the ground

Massively destructive Hurricane Katrina ready to strike Louisiana and Mississippi

Storm cloud (Cumulonimbus)

Warm moist air is unable to push cooler dry air and is then forced over the top of the cooler air

A device to measure relative humidity is called a hygrometer. Hygrometer
