Warm Air Advection Transport of warm air into an area by horizontal winds. Low-level warm advection sometimes is referred to (erroneously) as overrunning.
Warm air advection The flow of air from a relatively warm locality to a relatively cool locality.
Warm clouds Clouds composed of liquid water droplets which have a temperatures above 0·C (32·F).
Warm Air Advection - the advection (movement) of warm air into a region.
Wake
The region of turbulence immediately to the rear of a solid body caused by the flow of air over or around the body.
Warm Air Advection - the advection (movement) of warm air into a region.

Warm Air: Is lighter than cold air and will rise above colder air.
Warm Air Advection: The horizontal transfer of warm air to cold air.
Warm Air Occlusion: When warm air overtakes and replaces warm air.
The index combines the effects of low-level moisture (850 mb dew point), convective instability (Total Totals (TT) Index), jet maxima (850 mb and 500 mb wind speed), and warm air advection (veering directional shear between 850 mb and 500 mb).
For example, advection makes it possible for cold Canadian air to move into the tropics, as with a strong winter cold front. Specifically Cold Air Advection (CAA) or Warm Air Advection (WAA) is also used for this entry.
at a given location (e.g., from southerly to westerly), or which change direction in a clockwise sense with height (e.g., southeasterly at the surface turning to southwesterly aloft). Veering winds with height are indicative of warm air advection ...
These winds are sometimes referred to as snoweaters. Additionally, a fog which forms as a result of warm air advection can be called a snoweater, as the heat released by condensation helps accelerate the melting of snow covering the ground.
