Warm Advection

Warm Advection warm air moves into a cooler region
Warm advection is the process in which the wind blows from a region of warm air to a region of cooler air. The following animation depicts a very simple example of warm advection.

Warm Advection
Transport of warm air into an area by horizontal winds. Low-level warm advection sometimes is referred to (erroneously) as overrunning.

WARM ADVECTION
The horizontal movement of warmer air into a location.

Warm Advection - Transport of warm air into an area by horizontal winds. This often implies the presence of stratiform lifting in the lower levels of the atmosphere.

Warm Advection - Transport of warm air into an area by winds.
Warm Front - A front that moves in such a way that the warmer air replaces the colder air.

Similarly, warm advection (or WA for short) also results in a negative ω corresponding to ascending motion. Negative vorticity advection (NVA) or cold advection (CA) both result in a positive ω corresponding to descending motion.

Advection - Transport of an atmospheric property by the wind. See cold advection, moisture advection, warm advection.

The low (or lowering) pressure at the surface is due to an excess of divergence of mass aloft over convergence below, coupled to strong warm advection. The speed of movement of such storms are often in excess of 30 knots.
