4. Winds curve this way in the Northern Hemisphere
8. A person who studies weather
10. The forward edge of an advancing mass of warm air that rises over and replaces a retreating mass of colder air

7. An air mass that forms over the water near the poles
9. Winds curve this way in the Southern Hemisphere
11. Winds that blow between 30° and 60° latitude in both hemispheres; they flow from west to east
13. Where air masses will meet but DO NOT mix
15. The forward edge of an advancing mass of cold air that pushes under a mass of warm air
16. A front that stops moving or is moving very slowly
